🌟 Celebrating 50 Years of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 🌟

🌟 Celebrating 50 Years of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 🌟

This week, our kura is proud to honour half a century of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori – a celebration of the living language of Aotearoa. 💖

Last Matariki, we set ourselves an ambitious goal: supporting everyone in our kura to be able to introduce themselves in te reo Māori. This Matariki, we filmed 50 students and staff sharing their mihi, to celebrate how far we’ve come together. Ka rawe koutou! ✨

Over the next 5 days, we’ll be sharing these videos – a chorus of voices, young and old, each helping keep te reo Māori alive and thriving.

💬 Nau mai, haere mai – join us on this journey.
Kia kaha te reo Māori!
