William - Lower Hutt

I grew up around a lot of Maori but never really had the opportunity to learn even though I was interested. Now I'm in my 30's and my work place has been offering free classes once a week which I was super keen to jump on board to do. We have a group of about 10 or so people here who have been learning and kōrero with each other most days. I think it's important to preserve our culture here and hope one day te reo will be spoken as a second language by all in Aotearoa. Tihei Mauri Ora!
