Meet Jasmine (Te Rarawa, Te Aupouri, Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Hine) who shares “Awanuiārangi offered an accessible teaching programme that meant I didn't have to move away from home in North Hokianga. I’ve grown personally and professionally through my studies making my whānau/hapū proud. I was employed by a school immediately after completing, am now focusing on my teacher registration, and planning to return to study for a Master of Indigenous Studies”

But it has a few areas of wear flecks on the edge of the seat cushion as shown and the top of the back of the chair, hence the price. The chair is 100cm high x 800cm wide. Pick up is in Kokopu or delivery can be arranged by negotiation.

The gestation period for rats is only 3 weeks & they reach sexual maturity in 5 weeks. They can produce litters of 7–14 babies.
