Whakataukī: “Whāia te mātauranga hei oranga mō koutou”             

Metaphorical: Seek after learning for the sake of your wellbeing

Literal: This whakatauki (saying) teaches that in a world full of noise and  confusion, wisdom and wellbeing will come when we ask questions with a genuine desire to understand the answers.

How might we make informed financial and social decisions SO THAT we can take calculated risks that enhance our wellbeing?
