Course Statement:

In this course, students will develop their ability to converse and understand spoken Te Reo Māori. By the end of Year 11, students will be able to converse with Te Reo Māori speakers in familiar social situations and cope with some less familiar ones.  Students will also build their skills in reading and writing Te Reo Māori and will learn to construct more detailed passages in different contexts. Students’ knowledge of tikanga Māori and Māori history, will also be developed throughout the year.  

Background:
