“The reo has been something that our whare has always strived to acquire.”
For Jamie and his hoa rakatira, Shanita, that meant making sure their tamariki had every opportunity possible to grow up surrounded by te reo Māori and te ao Māori.
Now his tamariki are older, it's Jamies turn to put that same energy into his own reo.
“Now it’s my turn to whakapiki taku reo, taku māramatanga i te reo.”
What started as Jamie wanting to grow his own reo has gone further than he expected. After 18 months with Te Huanui, completing all three levels, he is now a trained Taiwhirinaki helping others grow their reo! Mīharo!!
We’re looking forward to sharing more of Jamie’s story and where his haerenga is taking him and his whānau.
Ngā mihi ki a koe Jamie, mō ēnei kōrero ōu. Kei reira koe 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

"The advice I give to all my students: The first is show up. The second is just trust... I guarantee that you will kōrero if you can do those two things."
Ātaahua te whakahau nei - he aroha, he manaaki kei roto. Ngā mihi ki a koe, Kristina. ❤️ He Reo Kōrero, He Reo Ora! ❤️

What is Reo Kōrero? 🌿
We’ve been asked this a bit lately - especially since Tikanga Talks where we had a great wānanga on kaupapa Māori to celebrate Puanga / Matariki.
Reo Kōrero is a global movement led by Dr Ruakere Hond and other pou of Te Ataarangi to build a network of people who kōrero Māori every day, no matter where in the world we are.
Reo Kōrero supports people to do that in different ways.
👉🏽 We offer Ataarangi ONLINE and in-person classes to help people grow their spoken reo. Remember though, it doesn’t matter who you are learning the reo with. All are welcome in Reo Kōrero.
👉🏽 We offer events and kaupapa like Tikanga Talks and Let’s Talk Tikanga to help people grow their understanding of te ao Māori. This deepens how we engage with each other within our hapori (communities) and across businesses, iwi, and hapū. We also know that the more confident people are in te ao Māori - Māori and Pākehā alike - the more likely they are to kōrero. That’s because using the reo every day just makes sense.

❤️ He Reo Kōrero, He Reo Ora. A language we speak every day and everywhere is a language that’s alive.
