Ko tōu reo, ko tōku reo, te tuakiri tangata. Tīhei uriuri, tīhei nakonako.
Learning a new language provides a means of communicating with people from another culture and exploring one’s own personal world. Languages and cultures play a key role in developing our personal, group, national, and human identities. Every language has its own ways of expressing meanings; each has intrinsic value and special significance for its users.
This course offers both a combination of internal and external assessment.
Course endorsement available.

Te reo Māori is the key to understanding the Māori world. Te Reo Māori lays the foundation of communicative skills and cultural knowledge to enable students to be bilingual and bicultural with an appreciation and consideration of a Māori worldview.
In this course you will continue to learn and expand on your vocabulary and grammatical structures at a basic level, as an expression of mana tangata. Communicate te reo at a basic level to talk about yourself and whānau connections, which is important as it is an expression of identity and/or tuakiri.
Enhance your pronunciation and knowledge of Te Reo Māori, learn more complex sentence structures and tikanga of Te Ao Māori.
Your work will be assessed through two internal achievement standards and two external standards
Standard AS92092 - Te Kōrero mō te mō te reo i mua i te tau 1970 (internal)
Standard AS91965 - Te whakapuaki whakaaro i runga i āta rere o te reo (internal)
