Te Reo Māori

Te Reo Māori is a taonga, and is guaranteed protection under Te Tiriti o Waitangi.  We are committed to honouring the special place of te reo Māori as the indigenous language of Aotearoa, New Zealand.  We ensure that te reo Māori is valued and sustained as a living language in Aotearoa, and woven throughout our teaching and learning programmes.
