From the General Manager
He mihi maioha tēnei e rere atu ana ki a koutou.
REAP Central Plateau has remained a strong and present feature in our communities for more than 40 years because of our commitment to our mission, “To facilitate lifelong learning and community wellbeing”.
We have a team of dedicated individuals who consistently strive to build up our communities through education and support services.
The past few years have presented unique challenges, not just for our rohe, but across Aotearoa. However, the REAP team has risen to the challenge, continuing to deliver services and programmes that add value to our community and support locals to thrive.
REAP Central Plateau is an extraordinary place to work. Serving communities and people, in good times and in times of trial, is an honourable legacy that we are privileged to continue.
Nō reira, kia kaha, kia maia, kia manawanui.
