Abstract:<\/strong> All children and youth deserve to live in a home which is safe and nurturing. As you may know some children and young people in New Zealand are living within abusive and neglectful homes. These vulnerable children and youth need people like you or I to be brave and stand up for them, to ensure they are safe and nurtured. Together we will talk about factors that contribute to child abuse in New Zealand, what you should do if you suspect child abuse, Oranga Tamariki\u2019s responses to child abuse or neglect and how you can continue to support that child or young person.<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/strong> It could be the result of a car crash or disease.

\nPresenter: Wiremu Gray
\n<\/strong>Bio: Wiremu Gray is a trained Maori Counsellor and has been in the field of counselling for over 15 years. He has spent time in the North Island mainly working in rural Maori Communities and then several years in Christchurch, working at SJOG Waipuna for eight years and then in many secondary schools, private work, working with Maori youth mainly in youth Justice, care and protection and a Ngai Tahu led outdoor cultural programme, called ‘Te Tira Horomaka’. He is also a cultural supervisor working with NZAC members(New Zealand association of Counsellors).<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/strong> Te Whare Mauri Ora is a Model I developed after many years being in the field and understanding the particular needs for Maori, particularly the Rangatahi\/youth.
\nThe model was presented at a school wellbeing hui called ‘Grow Waitaha’ in 2017. There were more than 50 schools represented.
\nI presented it this year at the New Zealand Positive Education Conference in 2018, I’ve been asked to present to Maori service providers later this year. This was also presented recently in Budapest by Dr Denise Quinlan at a international positive education conference.
\nThe presentation aims to help people to have a greater understanding of what Wellbeing for Maori looks like and what contributing factors help improve a person’s holistic health and wellbeing. This is not only helpful for Maori, but for all people.
\nI talk about some of my experiences with working with Rangatahi \/ teenage Maori on a programme called ‘Te Tira Horomaka’ A journey of the banks peninsula – Connecting Ngai tahu youth to their cultural roots. I discuss some of the key themes \/ needs that came out of that programme.
\nThe workshop looks at the importance of self acceptance with having a secured Identity and what we all can do to positively promote this, we all have a role in looking after one another.
\nThe discussion will briefly explore the impacts of colonisation, especially focussed on Identity, cultural esteem.
\nTe Whare Mauri Ora, is a bi-cultural model which can be used in many ways. As a counselling tool in all different areas. Also a Wellbeing tool for a Community organisation, such as Schools, social services and many more.
\nThis Model has been used in the wellbeing initiatives at Christchurch Boys High School and is currently in planning stages at Christs College where I currently work.<\/p>\n

Workshop 3c\u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 End of life care & staying healthy!<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Presenter: Willem Vink<\/strong>
\nWillem has been involved in palliative care nursing for many years employed in a variety of settings including primary care as a Community Palliative Care Nurse and as the Team Leader for Nurse Maude Hospice. Later, working in the Christchurch hospital palliative service presented many challenges which encouraged Willem to extend his palliative care knowledge, skills and education culminating in completing a Clinical Masters in Health Sciences and becoming a Nurse Practitioner. He has also long held an interest in spirituality in combination with palliative care and end-of-life care, therefore creating many opportunities to discuss with patients and Whanau issues that are most important to them.<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/strong> When a diagnosis of cancer or other terminal illness is made for one of our family members or someone we love, it\u2019s normal to feel overwhelmed and lonely at times. But it is also important to do whatever we can to remain connected with, draw upon and strengthen our social support networks. It is healthy to make use of the support offered by willing and helpful people around us and to make healthy choices for ourselves but, this is not easy and we are sometimes affected by grief. This workshop will discuss death and dying as a natural life process, promoting a collaborative culture for support, reducing fear and uncertainty associated with illness and death, and building capacity and resilience in the face of grief and loss.<\/p>\n
