Mau Rakau Mentor
We are seeking a passionate, positive and engaging Mau Rakau Mentor to join our learning community, focused on developing self-identity and team leadership skills in Maori with school students. Applicants will have experience in the delivery of Te Reo Māori and Mau Rakau training. Strong Te Reo Māori and Tikanga Māori knowledge is essential. Other desirable attributes include fluency in Maori, confidence in using different digital platforms and experience with helping students journal their experiences.
We are a charitable trust that assists schools with providing different learning by doing group activities. Located in Hawke's Bay, Te Whakaritorito Trust has a focus on providing a link between experiential learning and future employment through vocational pathways. The Trust works with schools that have a community feel by operating small class sizes supported by other mentors and staff. Building trust with students involved in an activity they love, enables us to provide pastoral care support for students who need this.
The successful applicant will be enthusiastic about working with youth and have the skills and mind set to facilitate all manner of learning and team development with students interested in learning Mau Rakau.
