SEMESTER 1  |  TEACHING WEEK 5

FEAST 


Just as the sustained efforts of our new graduates are being celebrated, some of you will be grappling with first assignments at the start of your Carey journey. Time for a shaggy dog story...
Womble was a sick puppy with a shadowy past when he arrived at the SPCA in Auckland. The health issue was soon resolved after surgery to remove from his stomach a hacky sack, a rope toy and a soft toy mouse. He produced another hand-knitted mouse the night he arrived at his new foster home.
Like all three SPCA rehab pups for whom I have played ‘Good Cop’ fun aunt, Womble needs:
 security – as in, “Surely my caregiver has not left the room without me?”
 consistent boundaries and cuddles
 the couch - “But I have always been allowed on the couch”. Yeah right.
How long will it take the “all-consuming” Womble to trust enough to walk well alongside his human pack? It is a challenge, as is the journey taken at Carey.
“Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible”.
“Be praised, my Lord, through all your creatures”.
Francis of Assisi

PEER WRITING ASSISTANTS 2021

Do you want some support with assignment writing? Do you know about our Peer Writing Assistants? We have a new Peer Writing Assistants (PWAs) team who have volunteered their time to work with students to help them with academic writing and academic literacy.

Talk to the library team or the PWA team if you want to know more about what a PWA can do for you! Thank you Rebecca Pullen, Susanna Denby, Grace Paddison and Jono Edmeades!

The team won’t write your assignment for you ?, but WILL help you with the process of writing and give you feedback on the overall structure of your work. If you would like help with your assessments, you are able to book time with one of our PWA team.

Appointments can be in-person on campus, or online (Zoom etc). For an appointment, please contact the library (NOT the PWA team) as below:
For an extended one-to-one booking (30 minute or 60 minute options) email : library@carey.ac.nz and include:

  • Identify which assessment you are focussing on (course, assessment outline)
  • Identify if you want a 30 minute or 60 minute slot
Email the library with your preferred time and you will be given an appointment.  Confirm your appointment time within 48 hours.

PAIHERE STUDENT SUPPORT

Māori and Pasifika students are important to Carey Baptist diverse and vibrant culture. We value all our students and families, and we are here to help our students thrive in their studies.

Carey Baptist College is committed to enhancing the academic success of Māori and Pasifika students.  We offer academic support available to Māori and Pasifika undergraduate and postgraduate students with our Paihere space. 

Paihere means to unite or bind together and we want to approach study at Carey collaboratively and in the context of supportive community, among both students and staff.  Paihere offers wānanga, fonotaga, small-group learning, individual meetings and academic workshops.  Similar to a ‘village’, Paihere will help connect students with academic teaching staff, Library support and Peer writers to help develop their community of learning. 

Our student support team strive to provide a positive, welcoming campus environment for everyone especially Māori and Pasifika students.
