Our Mihi
Te Kura Kōmiri o Ōtautahi translates to
‘The school for physio from Christchurch’.
The inclusion of Ōtautahi (Christchurch) in the Te Reo translation of Physio Academy is an important part of our mihi. No matter how far afield Physio Academy is used around the globe, Ōtautahi, will always be our turangawaewae; the physical place attached to Physio Academy’s identity and evolving journey.
