Course Description Recommended Prior Learning

No prior learning is required


This course is a semester long and will be offered in both semester 1 and 2. 

Big Question:  Why is it important to develop a Māori worldview?

This course is designed as an introduction to Te Reo Māori and culture. You will discover the fun of communicating in another language, and learn how reo Māori is organised and used in daily life. 

By the end of the course you will be able to use te reo to communicate about yourself and others, know a range of strategies for learning another language, and know a waiata or three that you hopefully didn’t know before.
