Te Pokaitahi Ngapuhi-Nui-Tonu Te Raranga

This certificate level programme will cover the practice and theory of Raranga Kete, Ta mata, Taniko, tuktuku and piupiu. The emphasis of the programme will be to facilitate the students' learning through practical application and perfecting techniques of raranga using a variety of items for diversity. Although covered in theory, less emphasis will be placed on the use of traditional materials being mindful of the timeframe and availability of such materials. The programme will endeavour to set a basic framework which will enable students to staircase to more advanced areas of raranga.
