"My sister and I were raised bilingually and biculturally between Ruatoria and Wellington. We are as comfortable with a tea towel in hand at Hiruharama Pā as we are dropping kai off to Mum at the Beehive. This is a testament to the upbring my parents wanted and secured for us, modelled on the concepts of te reo me ōna katoa and their own reo journeys."
Tā Wira Gardiner & Hekia Parata share their stories of learning te reo later in life.
