E hara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini
he maha ngaa whakamaarama mo teenei whakatauaaki,
engari ko taaku. My strength does not come from me alone, but from the people i work along side of. Meaning there is strength in unity.
AKOAKO team can not take on the mammoth task of teaching Te Reo me Ona Tikanga by ourselves, we need support to share the load, therefore, we have started our Te Reo Me Ona Tikanga Classes, we will support you to become kaiako in your own home.
This journey is level 1 and will start in your own home (Ko te Reo o te Kainga) introducing basic every day Reo Maori in your own home. if you are interested.
