Takiwātanga Resource Project developing culturally appropriate autism resources
Altogether Autism and Kanorau are working together to develop and provide culturally appropriate Takiwātanga (Autism) resources for the community, whānau, hapū and iwi.
The aim is to:
. provide credible and up to date information to whānau Māori around Takiwātanga
. invite open feedback, reflection and discussion to amplify and extend the voices of whānau Māori to express their understanding of Takiwātanga
. create free learning resources to develop relevant information and share knowledge through a Te Ao Māori lens on Takiwātanga
. create resources that can be used by Tāngata Whaitakiwātanga, whānau and professionals who engage and support Tāngata Whaitakiwātanga and their whānau.
You can contribute to this mahi by:
. completing the online survey
. attending the wānanga in Auckland on Monday 11 March 2024 or online www.surveymonkey.com...

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
38.4% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
59.9% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below

1 July 2019
School children, parents and teachers, local maori Hapu members and Kuia & Kaumatua were among more than 100 people who together planted 51 trees in Whangārei to honour the victims of the Christchurch mosque shootings.
The idea for the planting of native trees to remember those who lost their lives in the March attacks came from a student.
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
