Welcome to our Māori cultural app, Whaihua.
At ASB, we have always been driven by a passion for progress, Whaihua, is a tool that helps us embrace Te Ao Māori, the Māori worldview, to normalise it and make it part of what we do in our daily mahi.
Whaihua is designed to bring Te Ao Māori to light and will help you build your confidence, knowledge and ability to practise te reo Māori and tikanga Māori every day, this includes karakia at hui and using mihi or pepeha to introduce ourselves and make connections.
This taonga is a repository of tools and tips to help you learn and grow your knowledge, a toolbox of kupu Māori, kupu pēke and reo whairawa.
