Our world is a beautiful place to be a part of. At Owairaka, we pride ourselves on being Kaitiaki (Guardians) of our environment and caring for it. We can all play our part in conserving our natural resources and showing respect for our world.

Hindi language Week.

Aotearoa is so wonderfully diverse. We have so many beautiful cultures to acknowledge and celebrate. This week we have been acknowledging Te wiki o Te Reo Māori, it has also been Hindi language Week.

In our पुस्तकालय (library) we have some amazing books that help us to understand and appreciate this beautiful language and culture.

Te Wiki o te Reo Māori

'He mauri te reo Māori nō Aotearoa māu, mā tātou katoa'

'MAKE TE REO MĀORI AN ESSENTIAL PART OF NEW ZEALAND FOR YOU, FOR US ALL'

Ahakoa iti, ākona, kōrerotia - Learn a little, use a little.

These books are on display in our Whare Mātauranga (Library). We also have a great selection of books in Te Reo Maori.

Come along to our Whare Mātauranga and enjoy a good pukakpuka.
