HE REO PUĀWAI

Mihimihi 

 

 Tēnā koutou e ngā iwi, e ngā hapū, e ngā whānau kei roto i ngā kura ō Steiner.  Ki a koutou hoki kei runga i ngā poari, ki ngā tūmuaki, me ngā kaiako, nā koutou nei te mahi taumaha, tēnā koutou katoa. He mihi nui, he mihi aroha tēnei ki a koutou katoa e tiaki nei i ā tātou tamariki, koutou katoa e hāpai nei i tēnei taonga whakahirahira, arā Te reo Māori me ngā tikanga Māori. 

 

He mihi anō tēnei ki ngā whānau e tiaki i a mātou, te rōpū e kaimahi tēnei mauhanga. 

 

Kia hora te marino 

kia whakapapa pounamu te moana 

kia tere te kārohirohi 

i mua i tō huarahi1 

 

Greetings to all iwi, hapū and whānau, who are involved in Steiner Education.  Greetings to the board members, Principals and teachers who carry great responsibility. Warm wishes go out to you all as you protect our children and uplift our precious possession, Te reo Māori and tikanga Māori. 

 

Greetings also go to our families that have supported the group that worked on this document. 

 

May peace be widespread 

May the sea glisten like greenstone 

May the shimmer of light 

Guide you on your way.
