Explicit literacy turns into lasting achievement.

When students learn core skills, they think independently and creatively about the world. We support teachers with clear ways to teach it, model it, practice it, and apply it.

Youth Week 2026: “Our Voices Matter! We Deserve to Be Heard | Taringa whakarongo! Ki te reo o ngā taiohi.”

This Youth Week, the Eastbay REAP Attendance Service team took time to listen to rangatahi and ask the hard questions:

🎯 Why go to kura?
❤️ What is your favourite subject?
🌱 Why is kura important to you?

Every rangatahi has a voice, and every voice matters. By sharing their whakaaro, young people help shape learning environments where they feel seen, valued, and connected.

A huge thank you to our partners for supporting this kaupapa:
🤝 KŌ Kollective Trust
🤝 Ōpōtiki Netball
