In celebration of our partnership with Purapura Whetu through the Te Māhuri adventure therapy programme, this month’s Māori word of the month is Te Māhuri, meaning young tree or sapling.

The Te Māhuri programme is a free programme for Māori youth aged 13-24 that live in Christchurch. Find out more about the programme on our webpage or on the Purapura Whetu website. Get in touch if you (or someone you know) might be interested in participating!
