Let: Ruahuihul Birney Ahomiro- Robinson - Doctor of Philosophy Education Middle: Henare (Hori) Ahomiro Master of Indigenous Studies Right: Kirimatao Ahomiro - Masters of Maori Studies. Tapuka, Ngli Te Rang. Ranginu. Tainul, Ngiti Rangnui, Ngati Whakaue, Ngai Ana, Ngài Tuhoe. Ngni Tuwharetoa, Ngài Awa, "We all graduated together" It's a day Henare (Hori) Ahomiro will never forget. A milestone, not only for Hori and his family, but a celebrated first also for Te Whare Wänanga o Awanuiärangi, from which he graduated with a Master of Indigenous Studies - because graduating alongside him in March 2019 were daughters Kirimatao, with a Master of Mäori Studies, and Ruahuihui, with a Doctor of Philosophy. "Yes, quite proud as a father to graduate with my two daughters," Hori says. It was the culmination of years of study and learning how to balance the load with full-time work, family and other commitments. Still, they are floored by the impact that their collective success has had on the wider family. "So many whänau members and even people that i don't really know that well seem to feel inspired by the three of us graduating together and are now seeking higher education," Ruahuihui Birney Ahomiro-Robinson says. Their triple accomplishment shone light on an emerging phenomenon at Awanuiarangi - the power of inter-generational learning, as increasing numbers of parents, children and siblings complete their degree qualifications alongside each other. As young girls, Ruahuihui and Kiri watched their parents tackle tertiary study to gain social work degrees. Hori says this instilled a drive in all his children to gain degrees of their own. Master of Indigenous Studies Master of Mãori Studies Programmes will start from July. Enquire now!
