Gianna Leoni

Te Tumu is really pleased that Gianna Leoni (Ngati Kuri and Ngai Takoto) has now joined the staff as a Research Assistant for 2015.  Gianna has long been a “fixture” at Te Tumu as a student and tutor, and is also currently putting the last touches on her doctoral thesis on the use of te reo Māori in government departments.  As RA, Gianna will be working primarily with the editors of Te Tumu’s new textbook (currently being written) for its MAOR102: Māori Society paper.  Gianna will also be assisting Te Tumu staff with their own individual research projects.

Nau mai, haere mai, Gianna.

In the meantime Gianna is also helping coordinate Te Tumu’s 25th Anniversary, which will run on 28-29 May.  This is going to be a great weekend for former and present staff and students, and will be immediately followed by the 25th Anniversary of the Māori Centre/Te Huka Mātauraka (30-31 May).   If you haven’t already registered for these events, click here now.
