Whāia te iti kahurangi ki te tūohu koe me he maunga teitei Seek the treasure you value most dearly: if you bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain My tutorial class found a whakataukī that they discussed the meaning of together, and each held up a word to say it together. Unfortunately the whole whakataukī isn't visible because of some technical difficulties! But the whakawhanaungatanga and the kaha o te reo was there!

It's important for me to take part in te wā tuku reo māori, as te reo gives me a point of connection to my tupuna. I am learning so that I can pass on the same opportunities to my mokopuna to connect with me when I am gone. I want to contribute to normalising te reo so everyone can be comfortable to kōrero māori, and we can be a truly bilingual and bicultural nation.

This is the kai that I and my students who are part of the Māori & Pasifika council, as well as my Māori class, made to share with the rest of our kura! We had hinu bread, chowder and spent time together to korero, to set intentions for the new year with kaikōhau and to share our knowledge and love for te ao Māori with everyone else in our school. Ngā mihi!
