Tēnā koutou katoaToday is a day of celebration at Whitireia as we honour our graduating students.

To every student graduating, your accomplishments reflect your individual efforts and our commitment to helping you reach your full potential. We provide our students with a solid foundation on which to build their careers in the professions and industries they have chosen.

This is a celebration not only for our students, but also an acknowledgement and appreciation of the families, friends and staff who have provided support and encouragement along the way.

Our vision is to lead and illuminate our communities through tertiary education and today you, our students, are an embodiment of that vision.

Our graduates are well educated and equipped with first class, sought after qualifications. Employers actively seek Whitireia graduates. We are pleased to be bridging the skills gap in New Zealand and providing the community with flexible, industrious and productive individuals.

Today we celebrate the success of students from the Faculties of Health, Business and Information Technology, Arts, Trades and Services and Te Wānanga Māori, as well as students from Computer Power Plus. This ceremony marks the beginning of a new pathway for each of you.

My warmest congratulations, I wish you every success.

Whāia te iti kahurangi ki te tūohu koe me he maunga teitei

Seek the treasure you value most dearly; if you bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain

No reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa

Whitireia WaiataKo Whitireia te maunga tū tonu nei

Ko Porirua tai timu tai pari

Ko Ngāti Toa te iwi mana whenua

Ko Whitireia te kuratini e

Ko te manu e kai i te miro

Nōna te ngāhere

Ko te manu e kai i te mātauranga e

Nōna te ao katoa

This waiata was composed by a group from Te Wānanga Māori, namely Taku Parai, Justin Puna, Eruera Ruwhiu and Willis Katene. It is about us – who we are, where we are and what we do.

The first verse locates us. It acknowledges our mountain (Whitireia), the body of water which surrounds us (Porirua harbour), the local iwi (Ngāti Toa) and of course, our polytechnic Whitireia.

The chorus (Ko te manu …) is a well-known whakataukī about the importance of education, learning and knowledge.

Whitireia acknowledges the support of the following people:

ο Ngāti Toa Kaumātua ο Ngāti Toa Kuia ο Dr Ruth Anderson, Master of Ceremonies ο Maria Uluilelata, Name Reader ο Callum Worsley, Whitireia student, Music ο Ryan White, Whitireia graduate, Music ο Te Kura Māori o Porirua Kapa Haka Group

ο Megan Parker, Florist ο Whitireia staff and students ο A special thank you goes to all who have assisted to
