"Ko tā te tūtirahōkai, he hōkai taumata ki tōna anō matākaikutu"
The restless spirit of determination will pursue principles and purpose to reach greatness"
Mātene Simon
‘Toitū te mana, toitū te whenua, toitū te tangata, toitū te Mākinotanga!’
My mana is permanent, my estate endures, my soul is resolute, my identity as Mākino perseveres
Underpinned by the four main pou of Te Whare a Mākino, Te Reo o Kahukura is a 12-week te reo Māori program tailored and delivered to Ngāti Mākino uri to strengthen their proficiency around the Māori language and worldview.
We will have two classes available. Ngā tūtirahōkai o te reo o Kahukura will focus on developing basic to Intermediate level speakers of Te Reo Māori, and Ngā niwha o te reo o Kahukura will focus on developing Intermediate to Advance speakers of Te Reo Māori.
