Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2013 resources now available

With one month to go, Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori is preparing to distribute a half a million copies of resources to support Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2013.

Each year, the set of resources is produced to support communities to host Te Wiki o te Reo Māori events.

The resource packs include pamphlets about Māori place names and Māori personal names, a poster, a map, stickers and bilingual office signs.

“Our theme is ‘Ngā ingoa Māori, Māori names,’ and we have resources to help the public join the kaupapa at any level,” says Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori CE Glenis Phillip-Barbara.

“New Zealanders can learn about Māori names no matter what level of knowledge they have of te reo Māori.”

Resources are available for free from the Commission at this link: http://www.korero.maori.nz/resources/shop.html

The resources are used by thousands of organisations each year to support their promotional activities.

“This is also a time for organisations to plan their entries for Ngā Tohu Reo Māori, the Māori Language Awards being held in Tūranganui-a-Kiwa (Gisborne) this November.”

As stocks are limited, the resources will be made available for download if demand requires.

Kua whakaritea ngā rauemi mō Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2013

Kotahi marama e toe ana, e whakarite ana a Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori kia tukua tētahi hawhe miriona rauemi mō Te Wiki o te Reo Māori 2013.

Ia tau, ia tau, whakamahia ai he rauemi hei tautoko i ngā kaupapa mō Te Wiki o te Reo Māori.

Kei ia huinga rauemi ētahi ruinga pepa mō ngā ingoa wāhi me ngā ingoa tāngata, he pānui, he mahere whenua, he whakapiripiri me ētahi pānui reorua mō te tari.

“Ko tā tātou kaupapa, ko te ingoa Māori, nā reira he rauemi whakamārama ā mātou kia uru katoa ai ngā tāngata, ahakoa te taumata ako,” te kī a te Tumuaki o Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori a Glenis Phillip-Barbara.

“Ahakoa te mōhiotanga o te tangata ki te reo Māori, ka taea e ngā tāngata o Aotearoa te ako i ngā āhuatanga e pā ana ki ngā ingoa Māori.”

E āhei ana te tono i ngā rauemi mō te kore utu mā te hononga nei:

Ia tau, ia tau, tikina ai ngā rauemi e te manomano tāngata hei hāpai i ngā mahi whakatairanga.

“Koia nei te wā ka whakaaro haere ngā tari ki ā rātou tono ki Ngā Tohu Reo Māori, e tū ana i tēnei tau ki Tūranganui-a-Kiwa ā Te Whiringa-ā-Rangi.”

E āhei ana te tiki mai i ngā rauemi i te rorohiko mehemea e hiahiatia ana.
