Not even a year in and this coalition government's legacy so far is one of lies, misinformation and obfuscation.

Here's a thread of the many times Luxon's government has misled the public with false claims & refused to release evidence to justify their damaging policies 🧵

Former Te Whatu Ora chairperson Rob Campbell says the health infrastructure crisis has been manufactured to allow for more privatisation.

"There's been an army of consultants, investment bankers & others [trying to] get into investing in public infrastructure for years."

Failing to Plan = Planning to Fail
When the universe decides to speak poetically.... have I learnt to listen? Wairua, a conceptual journey, battling colonised translation. All that is good and not good swimming with legacy and potential on the horizon. I wait, I wonder, I plan.

The evidence shows that streaming can limit learner aspirations and engagement, create low expectations and self-fulfilling cycles of lower academic achievement.

Feeling excited that I have been given the opportunity to present at this years Hui-ā-Tau 2022 in Rotorua next week! Mātauranga transforms our practice. Open the door to the dynamic interplay between pedagogy, ako and mātauranga that gives life to the term ‘to live as Māori’.
