Ngā Pū Kōrero o Āpōpō Tāmaki Makaurau- 2024 Whakataetae a Rohe, the regional te reo Māori speech competition is being held again this year at Te Noho Kotahitanga marae from 9am on Thursday 1 August
This event is hosted by Tuia te Waiora, a Māori Womens Welfare League branch based at Te Noho Kotahitanga marae, as well as the Tāmaki Makaurau MWWL Regional Council.
Rangatahi from Kura Kaupapa Māori, and Wharekura, from within the Tāmaki Makaurau region will compete in 6 sections beginning with the junior section of 10-12 years of age, through to the senior section 16-18 years. The winners of each section will travel to the National competition being held in October at Turangawaewae marae, Waikato.
