"Ko taku whakaihiihi, ko te reo Māori, me te whakarauora reo, ā, ko AUT te kāinga o Te Ipukarea. He nui ngā kaupapa auaha kua puta mai i Te Ipukarea, nō konā i māmā ai taku whiriwhiri i a AUT hei wāhi ako māku."

“My passion is te reo Māori and language revitalisation, and AUT is home to Te Ipukarea – The National Māori Language Institute. There are a number of innovative projects that have emerged from Te Ipukarea, so the decision to further my education at AUT was easy.”
