This is a full year course that is designed to develop year 12 students in Te Reo Māori to enable them to build upon the language skills developed at year 11. Level 2 Te Reo Māori focuses on learning key Te Reo Māori skill such as whakarongo (listening), kōrero (speaking), tuhituhi (writing) and pānui (reading). The teaching environment will be bilingual. 

During this year students will be challenged to learn and practice Te Reo Māori every day in, and out of class and are encouraged to explore significant events pertaining to their own hapū and iwi and incorporate these into their Internal Achievement Standards - this is also part of our annual haerenga (trip) where our senior classes travel to a different iwi to learn the history and mita (dialect).

SENIOR MĀORI HAERENGA - Each year, senior Te Reo Māori, Te Ao Māori and Te Ao Haka students will go on an annual haerenga "journey" to a different marae as part of their. This is an important haerenga that will enable tauira to be immersed in te reo and tikanga Māori and develop their skills on the marae, as well as enable tauira to obtain credits in te reo Māori and tikanga Māori over the 3 day period we are away.


Te Reo Māori 200 would suit a student with a strong interest in Te Ao Māori (the Māori world). 

Te Reo Māori is also a University approved subject.
