Kōrari for Aspiring Board Members
Kōrari sessions help promote school board elections and attract potential candidates from your community.
Designed for those curious about joining a board, they provide an opportunity to ask questions and learn what the role involves.
We hold Kōrari events both online and nationwide in the lead-up to elections.
Check if there’s a Kōrari event coming up, or contact us to arrange one for your school or kura.
Encourage your community to attend a session or watch our latest Kōrari webinar.
