Great story about the Mates & Dates programme we're delivering in secondary schools
Relationships programme rolled out
by Greta Yeoman A new programme about healthy relationships, consent and identifying potentially harmful situations is being rolled out to secondary schools around South Canterbury. The Mates and Date...Check out our own "Change Agent" Mitchell Skudder-Dey (that's him in the back) who has been attending the YMCA Global Gathering in Southhampton and London this week as a NZ representative. #YMCA175 #GlobalChangeAgentCohort4
We held a mihi whakatau yesterday to welcome our new Kaiarahi Maori (Maori Advisor/Mentor) Ruth Garvin to the YMCA. Ruth is well-known throughout South and Mid Canterbury, and we're very excited she has chosen to walk alongside us and support us on our journey to embedding a bi-cultural kaupapa in our organisation. Kia ora, Ruth! :)
So proud to see Ruth in this great roll, this will benifit the YMCA students so much. Kia kaha
The start of a journey and a commitment to true partnership - the laying down of the mat for future action - Kia ora Ruth and a privilege to welcome you our staff team and also host your whanau of supporters to come inside and see the YMCA in action.
