As an American who moved to nz at 8 years old. I remember they taught Maui’s stories And basic te reo to everyone from 5-10 years old and from 11-18 you have to opt into learning more Maori stuff as a class. All schools teach their haka to everyone but mostly the tesm sports players is where people commit to learning it properly. Mainly so you don’t look like an idiot when you have to do it in front of everybody at your game day. (And obviously so you can do it proudly to represent your school and community )
Please remember that Maori culture is not singular. Each tribe has their own history and traditions, they are not exactly the same for each. While the history of the haka is basically the same, their are differences in how it is told....especially between North Island and South Island. Also NZ Maori are different to US B Americans in that we have not lost our history or culture but fought to keep it despite colonisation.
Our different cultures down here in the pacific including Aussie & PNG is vitally important to us...& that's why we're brought up & bring our children up to respect each other no matter the race, color, language you speak...our unity & respect binds us together down under
in nz colleges are for kids that are 13 to 18 year olds. we typically have bilingual units and that’s where all the Māori kids are most of the time. and our teachers in those units either are Māori or pakeha/white that grew up in the Māori ways. they teach us things like Māori history and Māori language to carving and bone carving. Taiaha skills witch are the sticks you always see Māori using. a whole variety of things. there are also a lot of schools in nz witch are called Kura Kaupapa Māori/ witch are primary schools for 0 to 8 year olds that are only Māori language and Māori culture based they are also Māori based teachings
Kiaora as someone who has grown up in Kohanga (Māori daycare) as well as Kura kaupapa (Māori schooling) & High school. I can say that it’s dependant on the schooling. Most Hugh Schools (English ones) are the most slack when it comes to education around Māori subjects, unless you’re in the Māori department. Most Kura Kaupapa Māori = KKM go quite in-depth in teaching, but there are the small few that make you learn it yourself and some assume you have that knowledge when in-fact you don’t. Kohanga teaches you the most in regards to stuff like our creation and traditional oral histories (dependant which area you are in, will depend on the knowledge you’re taught) What most of the western world will call myths and legends, Kohanga teaches you. As always, love your guys reaction and keep on meaning awesome. ❤❤❤
As a Pakeha I love you guys.. you have gotten I hope that I have a french surname, now 100% Scottish blood.. I've nearly lost all my maori language.. I'm gunna move back and get in touch with everything!!! Raglan, Tairua, Waitomo. yes my name here for one reason. I am a very hard.. and proud kiwi
