I think it's significant and respectful to recognise Te Reo Maori in equal partnership with the rest of Aotearoa.



Te Reo Maori should have equal status with the English Language. I have faced many challenges in encouraging my own Mother language with my family as well as for them to also understand and use Te Reo in everyday situations. I am encouraged and pleased that our Presenters use Te Reo phrases in meaningful ways to present the News on TV. Its a great start. My own goal is to attend community Te Reo Maori language course.
