Year 10 Te Reo Māori
Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mrs T. Ririnui.
The Year 10 Te Reo Māori programme strives to build upon the foundations set in the Year 9 course, giving students the opportunity to explore Te Reo Māori in practical situations and use it to communicate and build relationships with speakers of Māori.
Students will learn through a series of topics, each with a cultural component aimed at deepening their knowledge and understanding of local tribal history through visits to significant locations and some practical activities. This includes completing a practical component in which the students learn the customs, protocols and skills associated with both tradtional and contemporary Māori art forms and crafts.
The course also aims to prepare the students for NCEA Level One.
Students are required to complete five REACH assessments one of which will be the practical component and the End of Year Examination.
Pathway
If you wish to work in careers in Aotearoa to do with healthcare, law, politics, media, business, education, the environment - ANYTHING really - then you NEED an understanding of Te Reo and Tikanga Maori.
You will be selected AHEAD of your peers if you add this to your CV!
