Baye - Tauranga

I am passionate about my culture. I have always been envious of my family/ friends and colleagues who are able to speak te reo fluently and admire there courage of learning. I have begun my reo journey by studying. I have a goal to become fluent in te reo the reason being is when i have my own children/mokopuna i would like them to know who they are, their whakapapa, to be able to speak their own language with whanau and also be proud to be maori.
