Use your te reo Māori in the classroom and you could be identified as your hub's 'te reo Māori' expert of the week. You should be practising your pepehā regularly to make sure you don't forget it!
We will be focusing on using simple classroom language, including asking what the Māori word for something is this term, so ensure you are learning the kupu associated for this.
Karawhiua and Kia kaha!

Māori@Marshland - Pukeko

Sam Jones The Pukeko Hub has had a great start to Term 2! Last week, we got straight back into our learning by spending our afternoons creating our visual pepehas. As part of this, we drew pictures of our parents - matua and whaea, our home - Ōtautahi, and korus to decorate. We are now learning and practicing how to say our pepehas confidently and clearly to others. Make sure to keep a look out for our pepeha art next time you're in the Pukeko Hub.

Māori@Marshland - Pukeko

This term Pukeko have been working on their Pepeha. We have created a visual Pepeha incorporates their mountain and river. In our hub we have created two different types. Boyce and Sim created a textured artwork with pastel and dye. Calvert and Smith created a sketch with pastel and dye. Students are at their beginning stages of learning their pepeha. They will continue to learn and practice their Pepeha next term.
