We are back into the workshop with our Tauira completing their Cape-Cod chairs here at Mahi Whakaara.

Our Tauira are working extremely hard getting their mahi done this week before they get set for assessments that are about to kick in this week.

We are really proud of our Tauira for their hard work over the weeks and now that we are on week 6 things are starting to fill up with some wicked outcomes with them working out how to use power tools and other materials that are used in the workshop.
