During Maori Language Week, we’ve been enjoying various activities that celebrate the rich Maori culture. We’ve tried our hand at traditional weaving, practiced Te Reo Maori, and experienced the energy of a haka demonstration.

These activities go beyond just celebrations; they are a way for us to recognize the importance of the Maori language and traditions. By engaging in these events, we’re building a deeper connection and appreciation within our community.

As we continue to explore and celebrate Māori culture, we’re grateful for the meaningful experiences that Māori Language Week has brought. Here’s to ongoing cultural appreciation and learning!
