Tō Mātou Ao
Kupu whakataki
I whakarewa ake tēnei kaupapa i te tau 2021 hei waka kawe i ngā manako o te iwi kia ora tonu ai tō tātou reo me te ahurea Māori ki runga i te moana me te whenua o te rohe nei. E rongo ana mātou ki te hiahia o te iwi kia ako ai anō ki ngā āhuatanga o ngā taonga tuku iho i runga anō i te tikanga Māori, ki roto i te taiao.
Ko tō mātou whāinga matua kia hono atu ai anō te hapori Māori o Te Tai-o-Aorere ki ngā taonga tuku iho o ngā mātua tīpuna.
E ārahina ana tō tātou waka e ngā whetū e toru:
1
Ko te reo Māori
2
Ko te tūhonotanga
to te taiao, each other and taonga tuku iho
3
Ko te whakarauora
Ngā Kaihoe-o-runga:
He rōpū mātou e ngākaunui ana ki te ao Māori. Ko tō mātou mahi hei ārahi, hei tautoko i tō mātou hapori/iwi/whānau kia hono atu ai anō ki ngā taonga tuku iho, koia ko tō tātou reo, ko ngā mahi o te whare pora, ko ngā mahi o te whare o Tū, ko ngā mahi whakatere waka, otirā ko te whakatipu i `tō tātou Pā Harakeke.
Ko tō tātou rautaki he manaaki i te tangata i runga i ngā āhuatanga Māori, kia ako ngā tahi ai te reo, te tikanga, me te mahi ā-ringa e hāngai ana ki ngā taonga tuku iho.
Ō mātou Whanonga Pono:
- Whakawhirinaki
- Aroha, tētahi-ki-tētahi
- Kia ngawari te tikanga, kia pai te ngākau
- Kia pono ki te kaupapa
- Mā te katoa e whakahaere
- Kia hohou nei i te rongo
He aha tā mātou i rerekē ai?
Ko te whai i te reo Māori, he kaha nei hoki ki te mirimiri i ngā taura-here-tangata me te hono ki te taiao hei haumi i te waka. Koia pū te take kia whakaorangia ai ngā taonga tuku iho.
