Palmerston North Girls’ High School
Year 9 Te Reo Māori
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Whaea A. Blakeborough.
Te Reo Māori is a trimester course aimed at supporting you to communicate at a basic level in Māori. There will be an emphasis on activity-based learning with lots of opportunities for you to speak and listen to te reo in a fun and welcoming environment . After completing this course you will be able to greet and farewell people, introduce yourself, understand classroom instructions, say the days of the week, seasons and the months of the year and talk about the weather.
Please note this course is language focused and is very different to the compulsory cultural course; Te Ao Māori.
Students with an immersion or bi-lingual background will be offered an extension course tailored to their needs.
Te Reo Māori is available up to Year 13.
What should I have already done?
This course is open to all students studying at year 9.
Course Contribution
No cost.
Pathway
We welcome and encourage all ākonga to learn and embrace Te Reo Māori and kaiako will support all ākonga in their learning journeys. Te Reo Māori is an official language of Aotearoa and, as the awareness around the significance of Te Reo Māori increases, career opportunities are also increasing for speakers of Te Reo Māori.
