Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori 2020 at Unitec Library

 Kia ora e te whānau,

Come celebrate Te Wiki o te Reo Māori - Māori Language Week with Unitec Library. The theme for this year is: ‘Kia Kaha te Reo Māori. It will run from 14-20 Rahuru 2020, 14-20 September 2020.

Mahuru Māori is an initiative begun in 2017 to promote the use of te reo Māori throughout the month of September. Te Wiki o te Reo Māori - Māori Language Week is the annual campaign led by the Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori (The Māori Language Commission) to get more people speaking, hearing, and experiencing te reo Māori. Here are some ideas for your Māori Language Moment https://tuku.reomaori.co.nz/ideas - let’s do a waiata, starting your Zoom call with "mōrena", or blessing your kai with a karakia.

Unitec Library has resources both in print and electronic to help you learn and become familiar in Te Reo Māori. Check out the Unitec Library catalogue and Mātauranga Māori - Māori Language and Culture guide. 

Haere mai, see our displays at Te Puna and Wāitakere Library.

Use the hashtag #reomāori to be part of the kōrero on social media.
