Activities

I attended a weekly group meeting and, although I was nervous, I introduced myself in Te Reo and told them my name and welcomed them to Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori. Then I went on to say I was a great-grandmother and so on. They stayed awake so it can't have been too bad! I learned Te Reo for 2 years at my workplace through the wonderful teacher from Te Whare Wananga o Awanuiarangi and have a Qualification Certificate, of which I am very proud.

I began learning Te Reo 18 months ago at the Waitemata DHB, who have provided weekly classes for free. I don't want the language to die, and I am excited to see that more and more emphasis is being placed on introducing everyone to new words and phrases, on TV and in the media. I am excited to be part of this. It is the best thing I have ever done, and it's opened my eyes, my ears and my heart to Te ao Maori and could enrich my life in ways I cannot even yet contemplate in the future.
