Have you taken some of our workshops and need additional help with either topics we covered or topics that go beyond what we covered? Our OPEN CLASSROOMS will allow you to come in and get some assistance! There is a specified topic for each date, and there will be a provided challenge related to that topic, so if you do not have a specific project you need help with, we will provide the project – and the opportunity for questions related to it. We will have a couple of instructors to walk around and offer assistance, answer questions and help you learn how to use workplace, small business or personal use tools efficiently. This is a pilot program to meet patron needs, so come check us out and help to shape this exciting new program!

The Whangara people believe their ancestor Paikea was saved from drowning by riding home on the back of a whale. The tribal group has since granted leadership positions to the first-born males, believing them to be descendants of Paikea. But then a young mother dies in childbirth along with her newborn male son. His twin sister survives and the little girl, Pai, is brought up by her grandparents. Learning the skills of chiefdom from her uncle, Pai shows that she possesses a natural leadership ability. New Zealand. PG-13. 101 minutes.
