Notes

Kia kaha te reo Māori - kia kaha te reo taiao = Strengthening our language - strengthening our environment.
Te reo Māori, the Māori language, like so many of our taonga in Aotearoa, is threatened, But, like the environment, with collective understanding, care and action the language will thrive.
This booklet was developed to provide information about the natural world, and to help you become familiar with te reo Māori words and phrases you can use while you are out enjoying Te Taiao, the unique environment of Aotearoa.
Environment sections include:
Te ao o Tangaroa - Marine.
Wai Māori - Fresh water.
Te wao nui a Tāne - Flora.
Te tini a Tāne - Fauna.
