What a great role model
Former Hawke's Bay Magpies and Manu Samoa flanker Tivaini Fomai is no stranger to a tough battle.
But these days, rather than enduring 80 minutes on the rugby field, Fomai has his mettle tested working a 10-hour night shift that includes cramming in some university study during the wee small hours of the morning.
The father of three from Flaxmere in Hastings is halfway through a year-long graduate diploma of secondary teaching, which he is studying extramurally through Massey University.The picture shows Tivaini Fomai with his wife, Moira, in Wellington where he received a Kupe Scholarship to support his study towards a graduate diploma of secondary teaching.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
