Welcome to our Māori cultural app, Te Kete o te Tara.

We’ve created this app to be an effective kete (resource) for you as you begin your journey to learn some important aspects of Te Ao Māori, under the mantle of the Councils located within the traditional Māori rohe known as Te Tara o te Ika a Māui.

We’ve included information on te reo Māori (the Māori language), tikanga (customs), mihimihi (introductions), whakataukī and whakatauākī (proverbs) and waiata (songs), to help you understand more about our unique and shared cultural heritage.

FEATURES:

  • Original imagery and design, graphics, video and song. Synchronised narration and text in Te Reo Māori and English
  • Swipe-to-Read™, Touch-to-Hear™ Double Tap-to-Spell™
  • Users can record and playback their own narration
