Celebrating Kanorau ā-roro:  Neurodivergence on Te Tai o Poutini, West Coast

This FREE full-day event is dedicated to celebrating and supporting kanorau ā-roro—neurodivergence - within our West Coast community. A day to connect, support, and uplift neurodivergent whānau in Te Tai o Poutini. To make it accessible for all - there is no cost to attend.

We’ve got lots planned – we’re really excited to advise we’ve secured the following for the Event:

• Cam Calkoen (“That Awesome Guy”) as Keynote Speaker. Following Cam’s presentation, he’ll be running an interactive workshop focusing on goal setting, resilience, storytelling and mentoring - so stay on if you can!

• The  Neurodiversity in Education Project  - are bringing two young neurodiversity champions who will speak, and will kit out and coordinate a full neuro-affirming sensory space.  

• Locals  talking about their lived experience of neurodiversity; what it’s meant for them and what’s made a difference

Check the Event Programme button below for what’s planned and when. Come and go as you choose, but please if you attend a presentation / workshop - stay for that whole segment.
