Nau mai, haere mai!
Welcome to the Kāpuia graduate community of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa. Kāpuia is our version of an alumni association and has been created so our graduates can retain their connections with Te Wānanga o Aotearoa.
If you graduated with us before 2023, joining Kāpuia is easy! Join now to be kept up to date with upcoming events, networking opportunities, graduate stories and more.
The name Kāpuia comes from a tongikura by King Tāwhiao:
"Ki te kotahi te kākaho ka whati, ki te kāpuia, e kore e whati."
When reeds stand alone, they are vulnerable, but bound together they are unbreakable.
This tongikura promotes ideas of unity, camaraderie and strength – ideals that align with the underpinning values of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa.
Graduation is not the end – it’s the beginning of a lifelong journey and as a graduate of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa, you become part of Kāpuia and a new chapter of your life begins, full of personal and professional growth. Kāpuia keeps our community connected to news, events and updates from other graduates of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa.
