Level 1 Te Reo Māori

Tēnā koe e te akonga,Nau mai hoki mai ki te Kura o Hato Hoani. Ko te whakaaro tuatahi, ka riro ngā mihi, ngā roimata i runga i a rātou kua hūhua ki te pō, pō nui, te pō roa, te pō e kore e oti atu. Hēoi anō e ngä hunga wairua, kati. Koia rā e ngā hunga kitea, tātou mā e kawea nei i te ia ō nga tūpuna, Tïhei mauri ora.

After students have successfully completed Te Reo Māori at Year 10, students would have developed a strong foundation to study Te Reo Māori at NCEA Level One. 

This course allows students to further develop their understanding of Te Reo Māori through contexts which students are familiar with. Students will be assessed throughout the year which will enhance the students listening, reading, writing and speaking skills in Te Reo Māori. 

Like most Level One courses, Te Reo Māori offers four Achievement Standards. Two of the standards are assessed internally (10 credits) and two of the standards are assessed externally (10 credits).

Although Year 10 Māori would be an advantage to you in selecting this course, you may be able to enter at the discretion of the TIC of Te Reo Māori.

Course content includes:

• communicate about past activities and events
• communicate about present and past states, feelings and opinions
• communicate about past habits and routines
• describe, compare, and contrast people, places and things
• give and follow instructions
• communicate about problems and solutions
• communicate about immediate plans, hopes, wishes and intentions
• communicate in formal situations

These are covered through classroom teaching, guest speakers, field trips and mahi kainga.  The most important resource needed is an open mind.

Kia kaha taane maa.
