Te Hiringa Hauora | Health Promotion Agency is joining the Māori Language moment because we take a 'life-course' approach to hauora. That means having a healthy start to life and staying healthy across your lifetime with the right support at the right time, instead of only getting help when you're sick.

One thing that keeps people healthy and well is a positive connection to their identity, language and culture. We tautoko that by sharing this new lullaby 'I Te Tōnga o Te Rā' to settle pēpi, māmā and whoever puts baby down for a moe. It is sung in our nurturing, soothing reo as a koha for pēpi and whānau, to keep our reo alive in the home and it shows lots of tips to get baby ready for a safe, healthy sleep. Poipoiā te kākano, kia puāwai. He taonga tuku iho. Kia kaha te reo!
