Nau mai haere mai ki MIT, Te Whare Takiura o Manukau
E kore e taea e te whenu kotahi ki te raranga i te whāriki kia mōhio ai tatou ki a tātou. Mā te mahi tahi o ngā whenu mā te mahi tahi o ngā kairaranga ka oti tēnei whāriki.I te otinga ma titiro tātou ki ngā pai ka puta mai. ? tana wā titiro ki ngā raranga i makere nā te mea, he kōrero anō kei reira.
“The tapestry of understanding cannot be woven by one strand alone. Only by the working together of strands and the working together of weavers will such a tapestry be completed.?With its completion let us look at the good that comes from it and, in time, we should also look at those stitches which have been dropped because they also have a message.”?– Kukupa?Tirikatene
Te Tari Mātauranga Māori
Te Tari Mātauranga Māori (TTMM) is MIT’s centre of all things Māori and are here to support students, promote language and other programmes and workshops, assist with clubs and activities, and also act as the hub for Māori research, and community engagement.
TTMM is based in MIT’s Ngā Kete Wānanga Marae which is intended to be a gathering place for all Māori in Auckland and a prominent community facility.

Ngā Kete Wānanga Marae
The marae is the heart and gateway to MIT where students, staff, and the community are welcomed into our whānau and from where we offer ongoing support.
It is a place where you will witness how tikanga (customs and traditions) are being preserved and where history and whakapapa (genealogy) is found. It is where you find your place of standing.
MIT is all about community and people coming together to help each other succeed to the best of their ability. The team at Te Tari Mātauranga Māori does this by maintaining the marae as a home away from home and a central hub of all things Māori.
As well as any kaupapa Māori needs you might have, our staff can help you directly or by pointing you in the direction of other MIT services and organisations like:
- Te Ara Oranga – health workforce development service
- Māori and Pasifika Trades Training – scholarship programme
- The Ask Me! student services team
- Student support
- Student activities and events
- Career and employment solutions
Resources
We’ve gathered together a variety of information on Te Reo Māori, tikanga (customs), mātāpono me ngā kaingākau (principles and values), whakatauki (proverbs) and waiata (songs) to help you understand more about our unique and shared cultural heritage.
