Activities

The language is so poetic, I just love it. I always wanted to learn but access was not readily available until the last 4-5 years. Love learning and understanding the place names in New Zealand.

I welcomed all into my house with "Nau mai, haere mai. " Some reacted with surprise! Then, I asked how they were and taught them to say "Ka pai" or "Tino pai" All seemed pleased to be able to respond with such a simple phrase. Getting people comfortable with the language is rewarding!
