Thank you so much to the Strathlachlan Women's Fund and the team at Perpetual Guardian! Their generosity has allowed us to deliver three wellbeing-focused courses AND resource our community facilitation team to support women we work with needing mental health support.

Thank you so much to Simplicity for their generous donation towards our Work Ready and Work Skills courses. 💡

🧐Did you know SkillWise supports adults to find mana-acknowledging work in the open labour market? That means the opportunity for sustainable income, skill-development and a guaranteed minimum wage that is the same as any other Kiwi worker's minimum wage. ❌No wage exemption here!

Simplicity's donation will go directly to the delivery of classes that support SkillWise learners to further develop worker, workplace and employer expectations, and a bunch of practical skills for successful job hunting. This preparation step builds confidence and capacity for job seekers. How good! 🤩

Hari Te Wiki o te reo Māori! Happy Māori Language week!

Thanks for celebrating with us this week. Remember you can use te reo māori all year round, not just this week!

Today's kupu hou | new words are Place Names in Aotearoa!

You could say 'I live in Ōtautahi' instead of 'I live in Christchurch'
or
'I have visited Te-Whanga-nui-a-Tara' instead of 'I have visited Wellington'

Karawhiua! Give it a go!

Hari te Wiki o te Reo Māori! Happy Māori language week!

Today's kupu hou | new words are animals and objects!

You could say 'I have a Ngeru' instead of 'I have a cat'
or
'I made breakfast in the mihini tōhi today' instead of 'I made breakfast in the Toaster today'.

Karawhiua! Give it a go!
