Diplomats from all over the world travelled to Ngaruawahia last month to celebrate the Koroneihana (Coronation) of the Maori King, King Tuheitia. Apon arrival, they were warmly greeted by 59 students from NZMA Waikato who were gaining work experience at the three day event! The students were employed by TNT Catering in a wide range of roles including front of house and back of house at the Turangawaewae Marae and King’s Office and front of house, back of house and as room attendants, porters and doormen at Tainui College. NZMA Careers Employment Advisor Lorraine Van Lingen said the event provided a unique opportunity for the students, and one that would look great on their CVs. “The students made me very proud to be a part of NZMA,” said Lorraine. “They worked very hard and worked well as a team, and were able to showcase their talents and learn new skills. They got the opportunity to serve a large

Know Your Rights number of VIP guests, from both New Zealand and overseas. Not only do they get to put this event on their CV’s, but they are also getting certificates and references for their services.” Highlights of Coronation, which ran from August 18 – 21, included the Diplomat Luncheon which was held at Tainui College for Research and Development in Hopuhopu. It was attended by 130 guests and diplomats from Thailand, Argentina, Australia, Russia, South Africa, France, Canada, Cook Islands, Cuba, Israel, India and many other nations. “The feedback our students received was incredibly positive. The King was very impressed with them and some of the High Hosts offered them work in Christchurch.” The Coronation itself, which took place at the Turangawaewae Royal Marae on August 21, was a moving and powerful ceremony – and one which NZMA was very proud to be a part of. “It was really wonderful that so many of our students were able to be involved in this memorable occasion. They were very excited from the time they arrived until the time the left, and they did an amazing job,” said Lorraine.

Take 2 breaths and notice which hand moves most. If it is the one on your chest, this is shallow breathing and creates a feeling of anxiousness. Breathe so you feel your stomach expand, Voila!

Lunar Eclipse Details If you missed the first lunar eclipse this year you’re in luck! There’s a second chance to watch the Moon disappear in the night sky. Come along to Stardome and see a short show to learn more about eclipses and then take a look through the telescopes. Gaze up at the dark sky above Maungakiekie and watch as the Moon slowly disappears from view, high in the night sky. Because this eclipse takes place close to midnight, the Moon is near its highest point in the sky, so obstructions like trees and buildings shouldn’t interfere with the view. It’s a strange and spectacular phenomenon to watch. 8 October Penumbral Eclipse begins – 9.17pm Partial Eclipse begins – 10.18pm Full Eclipse begins – 11.27pm Maximum Eclipse – 11.55pm 9 October Full Eclipse ends – 12.22am
