Te Reo Maori at Southwell School
What? One of the areas to work on at Southwell is the use of Te Reo in the classroom and the teaching of this to our students. Elliot Tiffany has created resources for teachers to follow throughout each term for the teaching of Te Reo Maori and Tikanga and has made himself available to help staff if needed. We always greet each other using a different Maori greeting which has worked really well. but I need to continue to develop the use of the language so that it becomes natural for my students.
