Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington.
We extend a warm welcome to Te Herenga Waka – Victoria University of Wellington and to the 21st PECERA Annual International Conference.
The conference theme was Visionary navigators: Advocating for children, families, and early childhood education. This theme was guided by the whakatauākī or proverbial saying of Tamamutu: “Kia pai te whakatere i te waka kei pariparia e te tai, ka mōnenehu te kura nei”—Steer the canoe carefully or our treasures will be drenched by the sea spray.
