Because we believe that New Zealand is a bicultural nation. We have 3 official languages in New Zealand, Maori is one of those, (English and Sign language) what a privilege.
For many years Maori was not permitted to be spoken in the education setting. Let's celebrate and treasure that we now have the freedom to celebrate this nowadays!
Kaua he whakama ki te korero Maori,
Ahakoa he iti, he taonga.
Don't be shy to speak Maori,
no matter how little, treasure it!
