What's in a name? The meaning of Te Whare Tohu o Te Hau Whakaora
As an acknowledgement of biculturalism in Aotearoa New Zealand, and in line with many of the country's statutory bodies, in February 2021 the college adopted a te reo Māori name: Te Whare Tohu o Te Hau Whakaora. In this video, Kiri Rikihana (Te Ati Awa, Ngāti Toa, Ngāti Raukawa), former Executive Director of ANZCA's Aotearoa New Zealand Office, explains the literal translation and figurative meanings of the name.

The college acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and recognises their unique cultural and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas and their rich contribution to society. We pay our respects to ancestors and Elders, past, present and emerging.

The college acknowledges and respects Māori as the Tangata Whenua of Aotearoa and is committed to upholding the principles of the Te Tiriti o Waitangi, fostering the college’s relationship with Māori, supporting Māori fellows and trainees, and striving to improve the health of Māori.

The college recognises the special relationship between the Pacific peoples of New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific, and is committed to supporting those fellows and trainees of ANZCA, and improving the health of Pacific peoples.
