Applications Open! We are excited to open applications for our bilingual te reo Māori programme: Taupungatia ki te reo Māori.
Delivered over 40 weeks, this kaupapa provides uri Ngātiwai with the opportunity to immerse themselves in a supportive and safe reo Māori learning environment through weekly face-to-face night classes and two Kura Reo. Participants will grow their confidence in conversational te reo Māori, expand their vocabulary and understanding of tikanga, and strengthen their connection to Ngātiwaitanga.
If this is something you're interested in, and you are a uri Ngātiwai who can commit to the programme requirements, tukua mai te tono!
Head to www.maraemoana.com for more information about this kaupapa and to submit your application.
Applications close on Friday 3 July 2026. All applications will be reviewed, and successful applicants will be notified on Monday 6 July 2026.
Programme commences Tuesday 21 July 2026 at 5:30pm
