Speak Maori with Me

Valentine’s Day āpōpō! 💓

…. My friends and I are meeting up for a reo maori play date for our kids cos none of us had plans….

Tell me you’re married without telling me you’re married.
😝

Tauira visiting from the UK - of course I made them try the fry bread! 🤤

Nau mai ki Te Whanganui a Tara!

I love teaching online but I super love meeting in person.

So fantastic to kōrero in person this weekend and play some reo maori games.

Lots of new vocab practised to play Tākaro (like Dobble) and Guess Who.

And an imprmptu singalong of Upoko, Pakihiwi… ARERO 👅
(Head, Shoulders etc).

Kei te pēhea koe?

Here are some options for when you’re bored of “pai.” 🙂

What’s everyone doing to whakanui i te wiki o te reo?

🥳 50 years!!!! 🎂

Sounds long but it’s only slightly older than me which is kinda weird given te reo is NZ’s indigenous language.

Beginner 3 course starts tonight - Monday 1st Sept.

Last chance to jump on the waka and continue your journey.

We did it!

My fave is, Poipoia te kākano kia puāwai. 🌱
Nurture the seed so that it will grow.

That's what we've been trying to do this month. Daily watering! To keep the reo fresh in our minds, mouths and hearts.

Aaaaaaas youuuuuu wiiiiiiiiish.....!

Too good
