Te Matarau Education Trust provides confidential and personalised mentoring, practical support and connections to training, education and employment opportunities across Te Tai Tokerau Northland. We take the time to understand your strengths, aspirations and challenges, so you can access the right support and move ahead with confidence.
By supporting your whānau, tinana (physical), hinengaro (mental) and wairua (spiritual) wellbeing, we help you build strong foundations for your future.
With guidance from your Kaiārahi (mentor), you’ll receive encouragement and practical help to take the next step towards employment, training or further study.
Te Matarau Education Trust is a collective of hapū and iwi committed to supporting people and whānau across Te Tai Tokerau.
Guided by our name being Te Mata (faces) rau (many). The many faces involved in your life journey towards your career pathways. This is also evident with the Iwi and Hapū who make up the board of Te Matarau.
Working alongside employers, education providers, iwi, hapū and community organisations, we create pathways that lead to positive and lasting change.
Call us, send us a message or visit our office. We’ll arrange a time to talk that works for you and answer any questions you may have about getting started.
We’ll take the time to understand your goals, strengths and the support you need. Every conversation is confidential and focused on your journey.
We’ll continue to support you in your journey as you build confidence, develop new skills and take each step towards achieving your goals and creating your future.
Together, we’ll develop a plan that may include employment support, education pathways, CV development, driver licensing and connections to other services.
Stronger outcomes come from collaboration. By working alongside MSD, NorthTec, BCITO, local employers and community organisations, we help create lasting success for individuals, whānau and our communities.
