Culture Kapahaka
The National Curriculum states that all schools provide young people in New Zealand with the understandings, attitudes and skills they will need to play a full part in a changing multi-cultural society. This is evident in our sense of national identity and an acknowledgement of ethical and cultural diversity.
All teachers at our school:
- Use Maori words and phrases where appropriate and encourage correct pronunciation;
- Explore Maori concepts, values and viewpoints, and their relevance;
- Integrate te reo Māori and tikanga across the curriculum.
