I am an ECE Kaiako and have always wanted to extend my knowledge and  reo Māori. I want to be able to korero with my own tamariki who are Māori as well as the tamariki at my Kura.

I am currently a level 2 ākonga of Kāuru.

I do it for her. My tāmariki, my ākonga and my whānau(who whakapapa Māori). I do it to show my support as a Tangata Tiriti, it is our official language and we need to keep it alive for our rangatahi and future mokopuna. Kia kaha te reo Māori!

Simone

I do it for my tamariki and whānau who are Māori. I do it for the tamariki at my Kura. I do it for myself as tau iwi and a kaiako, I want to be part of the revitalisation of this beautiful language for the many generations to come.

Simone

My husband and children are Māori and I believe it is important for them to know their language so that they can stand strong in their heritage, I need to be able to help them on their reo journey as well on my own journey as an ECE Kaiako. It is my responsibility as tangata Tiriti to learn and understand not only the language but the culture.
