Te reo Māori
Ko tōku reo tōku ohooho, ko tōku reo tōku māpihi maurea

Te Whāriki has the expectation that "All children should be able to access te reo Māori in their early childhood setting, as kaiako weave te reo Māori and tikanga Māori into the everyday curriculum" (p. 14). In this section you will find resources to help you weave te reo and tikanga Māori into your local curriculum.
