‘The best thing I’ve ever done’: How full immersion kura changed former Silver Fern Courtney Tairi’s life

Today’s guest is Silver Fern number 151, Courtney Tairi. The former netball international and award-winning broadcaster was born and raised in Sydney, but, in her own words, her whānau and blood are Kiwi. Tainui is her tribe, Waikato is her river, Maungatautari is her mountain, and her subtribe is Ngāti Korokī/Kahukura. Courtney has just left Sky Sport after ten years, stepping out on her own as an independent wahine in media. She also shares the monumental change in her life after completing full immersion kura.

It’s a place where we celebrate the great people of this glorious nation.
