MLA 2025 Orientation Week Recap 🎉
Our 2025 MLA Orientation Week has come to an end! Throughout last week, this year’s cohort immersed themselves in New Zealand’s indigenous culture, picked up some Kiwi English, and gained valuable insights into their upcoming roles in local schools.
By the final day, these young educators—new to both the country and the experience—felt more confident about settling into life in Aotearoa, connecting with Kiwi families, and, most importantly, stepping into their roles as language teaching assistants.
We can’t wait to see the positive impact they’ll make in schools across wider Auckland! Wishing them all a fantastic year ahead! 🌟🏫 #MLA2025 #OrientationWeek

🌟 Farewell, MLAs of 2024 🌟
Last Saturday, we gathered to celebrate the remarkable journey of this year’s Mandarin Language Assistants (MLAs). It was heartwarming to see so many guests join us for this special occasion, making it a truly memorable farewell.
To our MLAs: your dedication and hard work in schools across Aotearoa New Zealand have been nothing short of inspiring. Through your efforts, the Chinese language and culture have flourished, building bridges of understanding and friendship.
We are truly fortunate to have had you here, sharing your passion and talents. While this chapter may close, the story of your teaching journey begins here. Who knows? Perhaps our paths will cross again somewhere in the world. 🌏
Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. You will always have a place in our hearts. ❤️
