Kāore i tua atu i te kaha rangona, i te kaha kitea o te reo hei whakatairanga, hei whakaū i te mana o te reo. E tino eke ana i te kaupapa Waka Reo ki te Aumoana ēnei āhuatanga e rua. E whai ana kia rere te reo Māori i roto i ngā āhuatanga katoa o te waka ama - ki uta, ki te wai, i ngā waha o ngā kaiako, o ngā kaihoe me ngā kaitautoko. Hei aha? Hei whakawhānui ake i te hapori reo Māori i roto i ngā mahi hākinakina Māori o te motu. Ko te waka ama tērā me ōna tīma 1700 nō ngā karapū 61 huri i uru ki ngā whakataetae ā motu. Anō hoki ko ngā kaihoe 1, 950 nō ngā kura tuarua 118 e uru ai ki ngā whakataetae kura tuarua ā motu. Koia nei tō tātou aroha nui mō te reo me te aroha hoki ki ngā kaihoe katoa huri noa i te motu. Hāpaitia te hoe, hāpaitia te reo! (he whakaahua o tō mātou mātanga reo a Hēni Jacob e mātakitaki ana, e whakarongo ana ki ngā kaihoe o te kaupapa nei).
