Kua tū ngā komiti tohutohu kaimahi, ākonga hoki mō tēnei wā hei tohu nui kaitiakitanga mō Te Pūkenga.
Kua oti i ngā āpitihanga te kōwhiri tāngata hei māngai tuku tohutohu ki te Kaunihera o Te Pūkenga mō te taha ki ō tātou tāngata, ākonga hoki.
I whakarite ngā komiti he hui whakatūhanga, hui whakauru ā-tinana i te marama o Akuhata, ā, i ka panonihia ngā taumata mataara Kōwheori-19, ka nukuhia hei hui tuihono.
"He wāhi tino whai tikanga tā ngā komiti nei ki tā Te Pukenga kaitiakitanga. Koirā ngā māngai mō ngā ākonga, ngā kaimahi me te Māori i te tēpu o te Kaunihera. Ko te hiahia kia taketake ai te reo o ā tātou tāngata, ō tātou hoa, ākonga hoki i ngā taumata teitei o Te Pūkenga," te kī a Tania Winslade, Kaiwhakahaere Mātāmuri, Tā te Ākonga Haerenga, Wheako hoki.
Hei whakaatu mai te whakatūhanga o te komiti tohutohu ākonga i te ngākaunui kia noho ko te ākonga te tino pūtake o ā mātou mahi katoa.
"He mea whai take kia noho ngā ākonga ki te tēpu, heoi, me mātua tautoko i a rātou kia noho ki reira hei māngai mō ō trātou hoa tautini - engari kia rangona ō rātou reo," hei tā Tania.
I whakaae a Keri-Anne Tane, Kaiwhakahaere Tāngata me te Ahurea, he maha ngā apitihanga a Te Pūkenga kua whai kē he tukanga ōkawa mō te whai wāhi mai o ngā reo o ngā kaimahi, me ngā ākonga ki ngā mahi whakatau-otinga.
"Kāore e rerekē mō Te Pūkenga. Ko te mea nui kia mārama te Kaunihera ki te whānuitanga o ngā tirohanga - me ō te hunga e piritahi ana ki ngā ākonga," te kī a Keri-Anne.
Ka hui ngā komiti i ia marama, ā, ka noho te māngai o ia Komiti Kaunihera hei mema Kaunihera. Ka noho hoki tētahi mema o te Komiti Māori ki te Komiti Tohutohu Kaimahi.
