Korero with Mark Scott

I had a very informative korero with MAori medium advisor from the ministry. We spoke together about the kaupapa of kura a iwi. We spoke about 2nd language acquisition. I like that kaupapa, using both languages to learn more. I aspire to be excellent in both worlds and both languages. I desire too that the children aspire to this goal too. There are some non negotiables: level 2 reo, ngatiwai reo, ngatiwai holds the mana. I've talked to the board and we'll try and get Mark back to korero about the kaupapa and then schedule a whanau hui and see if the whanau feel good about the kaupapa. I have since spoken to John from Omanaia who is on the same pathway, and Riripeti from Raurimu who is also looking at kura a iwi status.
