Week 1 Term 2: "kura" (school)

New term!

Kura
noun. school

This term we will be focusing on places because Maori language week is at the end of the term and Maori place names is the kaupapa. To meet halfway we are going to be doing names of places.
Also attached is a word document that has all of the words from last term so you can print them off cut it horizontally so you have two copies then fold it in half so you have a bookmark-type piece of paper. The school motto is on the back with the school kapa haka logo. We use this verse as an end prayer after kapa haka.
There is also an address to a maori dictionary and a grammar site which is quite helpful and to check to make sure I am actually teaching you Maori and not something I have made up.
Ma te Atua e tiaki e manaaki i a koutou i tenei wahanga.
May the lord look after and watch over you this term.
