Te Wiki o te Reo Māori
Nau mai haere mai, whakanuia te reo Māori. Whangaihia te reo ki ngā mātua.
Māori Television invites you to celebrate Māori Language Week with Kōrero Kawhe – coffee chat.
We have expanded on a concept developed by Massey University in 2010 to infuse te reo Māori into coffee culture.
Watch presenters Rahia Timutimu and Piripi Taylor using Kōrero Kawhe terms and phrases and download the Kōrero Kawhe card at the bottom of the page.
