Who we are
Te Tira Ahu Pae is your students’ association at Massey University, run by students, for students!
We provide both representation and student services to Massey University students ensuring equivalent and equitable services are delivered to everyone. We are a registered charity and independent from the University.
The services we delivered include:
Student Representation
Advocacy
Clubs and societies

Media - Radio Control and Massive Magazine
We are a single association at Massey University's four campuses in Pāmamao – Distance, Ōtehā - Auckland, Manawatū - Palmerston North and Pukeahu - Wellington. In the new structure, we have a total 23 student reps on the Te Tira Ahu Pae Student Executive with additional student reps in our alliance groups, Disability at Massey and the Rainbow and Takatāpui Advisory Group - RĀTĀ.
Do you want to be a Student Representative?
Representation activities are broad and there are both structured and unstructured opportunities to represent the interests of students. Student reps proactively look for opportunities to improve student life and address student needs.
They provide feedback, influence, educate and comment on many facets of Massey’s operation. Student reps collaborate, cooperate and partner with Massey to recognise and directly involve students’ ideas, experiences, questions, and concerns into decisions at all levels from course development to service delivery.
Student Reps are paid at living wage rate with full training and support for student representatives provided.
Student representatives are chosen via a mixture of appointments (for Presidents and Vice-Presidents) and elections (for all other positions). This process is held annually during semester two for the following year.
If you would like to run for the election of student representative, keep an eye on our social media in Semester Two of each year.
