Te Reo Māori

Why learn Te Reo?

Te reo Māori and tikanga Māori are intertwined, and so learning te reo Māori gives students access to te ao Māori (the Māori world) and to Māori world views. The insights and experiences that students gain as they learn the language will enrich and broaden their understandings of the uniqueness and complexity of te ao Māori.

Junior Te Reo Māori

Junior Te Reo Māori courses include study of language, traditions and customs to enable students to understand and acknowledge tikanga Māori as well as grow in their ability to understand and use te reo.

Senior Te Reo Māori

Students in this course will learn to use basic Māori language patterns spontaneously. The opportunities given include experimenting with new language reading independently and writing short passages.
