Te Marautanga o Aotearoa will be the world’s first indigenous curriculum for the compulsory schools sector. it will be a partner document to the English-medium New Zealand Curriculum, not merely a translation”. states The New Zealand Education Gazette.
I am proud to announce the launch of this document in Aotearoa/New Zealand. A new pathway for our schools to better provide education for the individuals who are Maori within a Maori medium education setting. To learn more about this take a look at the NZ Ministry website or Te Kete Ipurangi - The NZ Education Portal.

Tēna koutou,
Kātahi anō māua ko taku hoa mahi a Harry ka mutu i to maua hui. Ko ia tēna e āwhina mai ana i a au ki te tuku whakaaro ki tēnei wāhi. Ko ia tēna e whakamārama ana i ngā momo āhuatanga o te tuku kōrero, o te whakapiri whakaahua, pūoro, hononga ipurangi hoki. He tangata rehe, he reiputa anō aku hoa mahi ki tēnei momo mahi, arā, te ringa raweke haere i ngā momo pumanwa rorohiko, i ngā mea katoa o te ao rorohiko, o te ao ipurangi hoki. Me taku waimarie anō e kaha ana nei rātou ki te āwhina, ki te whakautu i aku pātai - he pātai heahea i ētahi wā.
Hoi anō, i whakaritea te blog nei hei mea whakatakoto kōrero mo ngā āhuatanga e pā ana ki a mātou mahi ka tahi. Ka rua he wāhi anō kia whai wā mātou, te hunga ngoikore, penei i a au nei, ki te parakitihi, kia waia haere au ki tēnei huarahi. Mā te parakitihi ka tau ai ngā whakaaro, ka marama pai ai te tangata ki te mahi, ahakoa he aha te mahi.
Na reira ko au tēnei e parakitihi haere ana i ngā akoako i whakaputaina e taku hoa e Harry i te ata nei. Kāre he pikitia, he whakaahua rānei o tēnei kōrero. Ā tōna wā e hoa mā, ā tōna wā. E mahara ana au ki ngā kupu a kui mā, a koro mā, arā, ahakoa he iti he pounamu!
Kia tau iho ngā manaakitanga o te wāhi ngaro ki runga i a koutou katoa, ahakoa kai hea.
Kia ora koutou katoa;
My fellow CORE Kaupapa Maori colleagues have given me the delightful name ‘Gertie’, seriously that is funny because it’s nearly as bad as my middle name ‘Edith’. Unfortunately, I couldn’t join the CKM Crew when they gave birth to the blog but was totally there in heart, mind and spirit.
I work within the ECE ICT PL programme and am the Regional Facilitator for 8 centres in Auckland and 1 in Whangarei. My role is to tautoko teachers with their action research which looks at ways in which ICT can enrich children’s learning.
I was born and raised in South Auckland, and love and live in Otara. I am of Nga Puhi and Cook Island descent. I have two beautiful children whom keep me superbly busy, along with work and studies!
I have been teaching in early childhood education for over 10 years and currently on my final paper towards my Masters Degree. Woop woop! Look forward to engaging in discussions with you all (3 of you) … lol …via the blog!
No reira
Tena koutou, tena koutou
Tena koutou katoa

had a visit from reggae cunningham today. a teacher from te kura kaupapa maori o te rotoiti. she has just received her new macbook and has come to me for a bit of help. she is also on the nga taumatua course for the year so literacy is her main kaupapa for 2007.
today we looked at how she could use 2 online tools to showcase her work and to introduce ict’s into her little kete [bag of tricks].
nā wai rā she now has her own blog and a bit of knowledge about how to do it. the only criteria was that she has to share this new knowledge with her other classmates.

T??n?? r?? koutou ng?? Kaitakawaenga M??ori, koutou hoki ng?? Pouwhirinaki o te motu i tae ??-tinana ki te hui whakangungu m?? te Marautanga o Aotearoa i t?? i 23-24 o Here-turi-koka, i Te Whanga nui a Tara. N?? Te T??huhu o te M??tauranga te karanga. N?? koutou te karanga i whakahoki. Kai te mihi.
A national professional development hui was held in Wellinton for the Resource Teachers of M??ori and the Resource Teachers of Learning Behaviour on the 23-24th of August. 90 attendees gathered to receive PD in relation to the M??ori medium curriculum draft document for L1-L2 M??ori medium programmes. A great 2 days with lots to think about.
Both groups enjoyed their first national pd session together and worked hard to develop regional pd workshops for their own regional groups and their respective cluster schools. Our thanks to Kiritina Johnstone (MOE) for the invite. Also thanks to Ella Newbold (Team Solutions), and our very own trio from Core Daph, Kathe and H??mi for co-facilitating the 2 days of pd.
4 laptops, 3 people, go figure. this is a moment in time where we had a brainstorm and decided to develop this kaupapa m??ori blog to assist us for. currently the kaupapa m??ori team is:
our collective responsibilities are to ensure that we each contribute and co-construct a blog that will assist each of us and you to highlight kaupapa in the wider ict world that will benefit us all.
When you’re offered breakfast, what better reason does one need to get out of bed and head to Hemi’s!! Tomatoes, bacon, eggs, hash browns, croissants, spaghetti, juice and coffee…………..yumbo!
Add to that, our own dishes washers - well………..stacking the dishwasher kinda counts! Laptops up, phones at the ready and orientation, navigating through some of the online communities, was the key flavouring of the day. An audio conference with Nick - and a quick touch base with Jonathan Furness, added to our day of PD and great dialogue.
Next time though, when I’m needing to do an online tutorial………..I might want to move away from Daph and Hemi whom decided it was a good time to pull faces and try and put me off my stride!! It’s OK you two……………you’ll keep!!
A very productive day, lots of new learning and great company
