Iwi: Taranaki Iwi, Whanganui

Experience: 

I have been learning te reo Māori for 10years while home-schooling my tamariki who have grown up as fluent speakers of the language. This journey has taken me through Te Kōhanga Reo, T e Wānanga o Aotearoa and has bought me back to work among my hapū and iwi Ngā Rauru where I have been attending rūmaki reo, whānau wānanga and organising youth wānanga at my marae.

I am passionate about different kaupapa I am involved with that are all centered around revitalisation of te reo Māori in the community. This is my second year of teaching te reo Māori and Kaupapa Māori at Coastal Taranaki School where I work with tamariki and taiohi from years 0 – 13.
