Literacy Aotearoa Hui (Meetings)
Te Hui ā Tau (AGM) and the National Planning Hui
Thursday 8th Hōngongoi (July) - Saturday 10th Hōngongoi (July) 2010.
Ngā Hui Heke is the name for the three regional hui or meetings for Ngā Poupou (member providers) that take place each year between April and May.
These hui are followed by two national hui Te Hui ā Tau (AGM) and the National Planning Hui held each year in July.
The purpose of Ngā Hui Heke (Regional Hui) is to provide a forum that will:
- determine specific issues and trends of literacy needs and services of the regions;
- elect the two regional representatives for Te Kōruru (every 3 years);
- draft remits for submission to Te Hui ā Tau (AGM);
- carry out training sessions and networking at a regional level.
Ngā Hui Heke are hosted by a Poupou from each region:

Te Hui ā Tau (AGM) and the National Planning Hui are attended by members of Ngā Poupou including students, tutors, coordinators, managers, governing committee members and invited guests.
Each year Te Hui ā Tau and National Planning Hui have been held in Te Ika a Maui (the North Island). This year, Ngā Poupou of Te Heke Tuatoru (Region Three) - Te Waipounamu (the South Island) will be hosting the hui in Otautahi (Christchurch).
Ngā Poupou of Te Heke Tuatoru (Region Three) have the experience, enthusiasm, skill and energy and already make a major contribution to regional and national peer professional development.
For 2010 there will be a change in programme for the National Planning Hui. In light of the intensive work involved in the planning, implementation and follow up for the Student Writing Event, Te Kōruru have agreed that the Student Writing Event will be held on alternate years, to coincide with the National Planning Hui occurring in Tamaki Makaurau (Auckland). The two-year cycle also offers opportunity to conduct a timely review of the event, and this will take place over the next 12 months.
2010 Dates: Thursday 8th Hōngongoi (July) - Saturday 10th Hōngongoi (July) 2010.
Publications that are produced from these hui include the Student Writing Booklet and the National Planning Hui Report which are distributed to Ngā Poupou.
