Kia ora koutou katoa. Welcome to our February newsletter! Here at Kaitiaki o Ara, we have been busy getting ready for Term 1 workshops, so by the time you read this they may have already started! Workshops are an excellent way to get the year and your plans underway. They provide the building blocks for Kaitiaki o Ara/SADD rangatahi to understand what we are all about, how we do it and how to create meaningful activities that address important road safety issues in our communities. In this issue, we have updates from our Māori Advisory Group, our new Deputy Youth Representative, and how we are progressing with our rebrand. Additionally, check out the community updates from Drive (especially if you are about to go for your restricted licence) and have a look at the Rightcar website as they have updated their safety ratings. You will also start seeing a lot of hype about our annual Conference which we are SUPER excited about. It’s a chance for you to meet other passionate young people from all over the motu, hear from experts in their field, and design and create your own resources…what’s not to like!? Lastly, our hearts go out to all of those who have been affected by the recent weather events. Kia kaha everyone. We will get through this. Take care,
— Mark, Delivery Lead
