This week we mark the karakia whakamoemiti (blessing) of Tū Waka-Waipapa – the new public car park located near Christchurch Hospital. We also celebrate the success of a new pilot Wāhine Ora Colposcopy Community Clinic for wāhine Māori and Pacific women.

In this issue’s akoranga reo Māori (te reo Māori lesson) we recap some of the kupu (words) and phrases we have learned in recent lessons, including terms you can drop into meetings and conversations. Kia manawa tītī! Keep going and don’t give up!

We welcome your feedback on the Te Whatu Ora Waitaha | Canterbury Pānui. Please contact communications@cdhb.health.nz
