Ae tika! Our reo is very unique. For me that reason is because from our reo comes the pūrākau which guides us. From our reo is our connection to te ao Māori, ngā atua, ngā hau e wha me tātou whānau, regardless of where we all are (physically, mentally, spiritually). It upholds a sense of belonging and a greater well being within us to be able to korero Māori and allows te iwi Māori to stay true and stand strong and humble as we strive to learn generations of knowledge through our unique reo.
