Recently alongside the leadership team from Homai, I attended the Future Ready conference hosted by Lalanga in South Auckland. This learning opportunity came to me via our Tatupu Cluster convenor, Sonia Johnston. While we cannot always attend every single event ourselves, sharing these opportunities across our networks is so important for keeping us all connected and growing. Fa'afetai tele le fa'asoa Sonia!
The conference itself focused closely on the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the future of Pasifika and Māori education. A core part of our Manaiakalani network is our commitment to Learn, Create, and Share. Staying open to new learning, stepping outside our daily routines, and connecting with others helps us keep our mahi fresh.
It was affirming to see how much of our daily classroom practice already aligns with these national conversations, especially around equity and student empowerment. At the same time, seeing other ways of doing things gave us fresh perspectives and sparked new ideas on how we can continue to use AI in culturally responsive, safe, and exciting ways.
Thank you to our Tatupu Cluster convenor for passing on this invitation, to Lalanga for hosting, and to the Homai leadership team for their great companionship. We return to our schools ready to explore these digital tools together!
