Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori

What an awesome first week back at school!

It was Maori language week last week.

We learnt the Maori word for tomorrow -  Āpōpō 

We learnt a new song and made up some actions to it:


"MĀ" is White

MĀ* is white, whero is red, käkäriki green
Pango is black, mangu is too, A. E. I. O. U.

Köwhai yellow, päkäkä brown, kiko-rangi blue
Pa-raka-raka is our orange, A. E. I. O. U.

Wera is hot, maku wet, makariri cold
Ua is rain, mahana warm, A. E. I. O. U.

Tahi is one, rua is two, toru number three
Whä is four, rima is five, 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5

Ono is six, whitu is seven waru number eight,
Iwa is nine, tekau is ten, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 


We will be learning more Maori language over the next few weeks.  Keep an eye on our blog to see us learning together and practicing...
