Maori Language Week


The theme for this years Maori Language Week is Manaakitanga which is a very important part of Māori custom and identity. At its core manaakitanga is about how we make people feel welcome when they are in our company, and how we give regard to and care for others when hosting visitors.

The capacity for Manaakitanga is in all of us and
is something that as New Zealanders we do very well with our good old kiwi hospitality....so how do you show manaakitanga?
