In Kōkiri 24 we pay tribute to Sir Paul Reeves, a man who had many ‘firsts’ in his life. He was the first Māori to hold the office of Governor General, the first Māori priest to study in Oxford University as well as the first Māori to be elected and ordained a Bishop of the diocese of Waiapu. He gave so much to his people and he will be missed. In this issue you will also learn about the work being done by provider collectives, how they are championing for change and how whānau are embracing the opportunity to develop their capability to become more self-managing. As Rugby World Cup fever heats-up, learn how Te Puni Kōkiri have worked hard to show the world the meaning of manaakitanga. Download the PDF (4.4MB)
