Year 8 option Māori is an introductory course into Te Reo Māori. Unlike the full year course, option Māori is based solely on speaking and listening and will aid in the transition to year 9 Māori. Learners are expected to learn a range of different language and tikanga skills with a strong emphasis on project based learning and collaboration. 

 

Year 8 option Māori is directed at level 2 & 3 of the curriculum and is specifically focused on Te Reo Māori & Tikanga (Māori language & processes) with follow-on aspects of Matauranga Māori (Māori knowledge).
