Te Reo Māori is important to me because it connects me with my tūpuna, my whakapapa, my whenua. I am more grounded in myself when I embrace Te Ao Māori. It is also important to me because I believe everyone should embrace the beauty of our reo, whether you're Māori or not. So the more I ako the more I can share, and the ako keeps moving. I want my tamariki to grow up in an Āotearoa where Te Reo Māori is a part of their daily life and I have hope that with the way we are moving it will be so. Mauri ora!!
