Term 2 Week 4

Where we are heading with our Te Reo Maori Programme:

Welcome at the door: Haere mai, Nau mai...

Speaker: E tu

Speaker: Tena tatou (He Whakawhetai)

Who could be our speakers?  Miss Denniston and Mrs Whitta will choose 1 or 2 people to welcome our visitors


Kaitiakitanga (guardian of our land)
  • Maori people had to be careful of their resources like wood, sea food, natural resources
  • They had to try and trade for the things they needed.
  • If they couldn't trade with the hapu around them they would go to war to find the things they want.

Watch this video to help us understand Kaitiakitanga


I have some questions for you...
  1. What does whenua mean?
  2. What tribe does Riverdale belong to?
  3. What does moana mean?
  4. How can we look after our environment?
  5. What does kitiakitanga mean?
