Ngā pōtiki toa a Taikehu

Ngā tamariki toa a Taikehu

The brave young children of Taikehu


Are you aged between 21 and 28 years old, and wanting to be supported in truly bringing out all of your potential?


Every year, Rotary District 9920 (comprised of clubs in Central, Eastern and South Auckland as far as Tuakau and including the Pacific Islands of Samoa, Fiji, Rarotonga, Vanuatu and French Polynesia) supports a contingent of rangatahi/taiohi in a week long experiential live-in programme designed to help young people develop their team work and communication skills and fulfil their potential as leaders.


The programme consists of a combination of:

  • Presentations and Workshops facilitated by community and business leaders particularly focusing on leadership development,
  • opportunities for the exchange of ideas, opinions and experiences in discussion groups etc,
  • open sessions, sport and keep fit exercises,
  • the opportunity to experience and practice leadership skills in action,
  • involvement in a community activity and with the host Rotary Club programme, hosted in our heartland.


We would love to support two Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki uri into the programme this year, which will be held from Saturday 29th June until Saturday 6th July 2024 at Willowpark Convention Centre, Eastern Beach, Auckland. 


If you, or a member of your whānau, is interested in this opportunity, please get in touch by emailing hr@ngaitaitamaki.iwi.nz to have a kōrero about next steps.
