Te Wā Tuku Reo Māori 2021

Dad and I having a conversation in te reo Maori

Blake Norris

See post

My whānau pledged to include te reo Māori in all of our messages/emails/socials this week :)

Julia

Our family are learning together Kei te ako tahi to maatau whanau ~Claassens Family~

Melanie

We had a team hui, greeted our whanau and asked how they were in te reo. We then played a fun Maori kahoot! Miharo!

Meghan

Love to celebrate Māori Language and the culture to all generations.

Leah

Kia ora! To celebrate te wiki o te reo Māori we made paraoa parae for the first time. We learned words to use in our everyday korero at home. We recited a karakia before our kai, and used te reo in all of our messages comms with workmates, friends and whānau. But what the tamariki enjoyed most was crafting bookmarks as gifts, adorning them with te reo Māori so that our whānau can ako alongside us :)

Julia

Troye Williams, (6) year 1, has lived in Aotearoa for 2 years now. He likes to ako te reo with the whole whanau.

Troye

Our junior team Zoom/zui.

Cerys

We celebrated as a team by asking each other how we were feeling in te reo Māori before playing a kahoot together which looked at kupu we knew. We also did a karakia before our meeting and a karakia mutunga at the end.

William

Our rōpū of Team Pūkeko kaiako got together via zui. We started with a karakia and then everyone took turns to ask each other, "Kei te pēhea koe?". After that, we played a te reo Māori Kahoot and finished with a karakia mutunga. Meinga meinga e hoa mā. Kia kaha te te reo Māori!

Whaea Robyn

I love languages and the diversity they bring and what better language to ako than one that is unique to our beautiful Aotearoa!

Hayley

This is one of the special languages of NZ/Aotearoa. It's important that I learn more so that I can teach my students. I also love how we integrate Te Reo with English when we speak. It's so unique and makes the language a living part of what it means to be a Kiwi.

Whaea Robyn

From Abby (6) "its good to learn Maori words, because the Maori people where the first one's here in New Zealand"

Penny

Te Reo Maori is a unique and special language and is a part of us as Kiwis. It's important to make it a daily part of our tamariki's life to make it part of their whole life.

Pip

He tangata, he tangata, he tangata. ” What is the most important thing in this world? It is people, it is people, it is people. . . and I am one of those people, so I choose to join and to learn.

Deb

To help all the different people in NZ unite under a Te Reo umbrella. Irrespective of language or culture, we can all connect on mutual ground in Te Reo.

Corli

To ensure our tamariki have a chance to learn and love te reo Māori.

Mark

To spread the word, engage people of all backgrounds in the language and culture of Aotearoa and encourage people to take the leap and get involved.

Cerys

I want to help grow the the reo in Aotearoa

William

I dream of living in a community where te reo Māori thrives. Where it is spoken as freely as English. To me, it is one of our greatest taonga and something that enriches the lives of everyone living on this motu. Kia kaha te reo Māori!

Mark

Kia kaha te reo Māori! Kia ora e te whānau!

William
