This waiata covers it all — colours, weather, and numbers — using a familiar tune that makes learning fun and engaging for our pēpi and tamariki.
Our tamariki thrive through repetition, encouragement, and praise. Every waiata, every kupu, and every practice helps build their confidence and strengthens their connection to te reo Māori.
Learning doesn't stop at kapa haka. The environments we create at home in our whare and in our communities play a huge role too. Whether it's Māma playing Māori music in the background, using simple te reo throughout the day, or celebrating every new word learnt, these small moments make a big difference.
Most importantly, we're teaching our babies to stand proud in who they are and to know that being Māori is their superpower ⚡️🦸🏽♀️🦸♂️

"Ko te reo te mauri o te mana Māori"
The language is the life force of Māori identity.
