The Te Reo Māori Language Course for Beginners is part of

Carey’s commitment to the bicultural journey. The class is

fun, interactive and focussed mainly on developing

listening and speaking skills. In the process of learning the

basics of te reo Māori we discover who Māori are as

tāngata whenua (people of the land) and how

relationships might be forged and faith shared. We will

learn how to mihi (greet people), say pepeha (introduce

ourselves and our families), read and recite karakia

(prayers), sing waiata (including songs specifically

composed for Carey Baptist College). We also learn

whakataukī (appropriate proverbs for sermons and mihi),

kīwaha (idiomatic sayings) and about whānau (describing

our family relationships), whenua (landmarks of Tamaki

Makaurau) and marae (tikanga Māori).

Welcome to those of you who have chosen to learn Te Reo Māori.My name is Whaea Lorraine Taogaga. I have been a teacher for nearly twenty years.

I am really looking forward to meeting you all as we walk this language journey together. Let me leave with you with this whakatauki (proverb) from the Māori language.
