Respect All People

...wick'd you made it here!  ...'cos we wanna RAP… nah not the singing RAP but something just as good aye... 

In Maori – RAP =
Whakamana Tangata

In Samoan – RAP =
Fa’aaloalo i Tagata Uma

And in English – RAP =
Respect All People

Yeah but wot is RAP? It's a new approach to reducing & replacing violence among young people... a new way of thinking... ideas & encouragement for schools, youth organisations & services working w young people.  Participants of RAP training are provided w tools, programmes, concepts & resources 4 direct use within their schools, organisations & services... and trainees get to be hooked up w others RAPping around th country...

RAP's about treatin' people th way you want 2 be treated & RESPECT means lots to many people... so go chek out wot they're sayng on th 'Cool Stuff' page - chur chur! While you're there - listen to some pretty cool songs written by rangatahi... n if u want, why not come up w a poster that describes RESPECT to you - chek out th one's already there n come up w your own n send it in...  

If you're interested in bringing RAP 2 your area - get in touch... in th meantime go chek out when RAP will b coming your ways... read th blogs - ok - they're not flash but hei - that's what u get when you're a newby at it hahaha!!! ...nah yeah but preti soon you'll see wot others are RAPping out around Aotearoa...

Shhhh - n th word's out there'll be some competition coming up later in th year for young people so yeah... watch this space...
