A caravan and a coffee machine - taking chaplaincy onto the film set
<p>Kevin Denholm is one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s most successful commercial film directors, working for major brands such as Air New Zealand, Toyota and Whittaker’s. Alongside the commercial work, he and his wife Nikki produce documentaries on global humanitarian issues.</p><p>Kevin is also an ordained Anglican Minister. Having been raised in a faith-based home, his father is also a minister, he naturally gravitated towards a pastoral care role in the film industry. When the pandemic struck, he reached out to see if anyone needed support – and the floodgates opened. He’s since set up his FilmChaplain service, heading off to film sets with his caravan and coffee machine to offer support to crews.</p><p>He’s also completed his Master of Chaplaincy at Otago and is currently in the final year of his PhD, on the topic of moral injury in the film industry.</p>

Juggling te reo Māori advocacy, Auckland council meetings and leading a new high school
<p>At the end of 2025, we were lucky enough to find space in Dr Will Flavell’s diary to talk with him about his vision for te reo Māori, his work on the Auckland City Council and how it feels to be starting out as the newly-minted Principal of Te Kāpehu Whetū – Tamaki (a new charter high school). Will (Ngā Puhi, Ngāti Whātua, Tainui, Ngāti Maniapoto), talks about combining his teaching career with his local government career, his passion for te reo Māori and his love of working with rangitahi. Will graduated from the University of Otago with a Doctor of Education via distance learning in 2020 and was a Fulbright Ngā Pae o te Māramatanga Scholar in 2022.</p>
