Te Whakapapa

Ka whakatokoria e ngā kōrero e whai nei ngā kaupapa matua me ngā ekenga i whakarewaina ai a Huinga Reo (Te Reo Māori Subject Association Aotearoa)

Te Tīmatanga

I te tau 2021, ka whai wāhi atu te PPTA Kaihautū Māori ki Te Reo o Te Tai Tokerau (TROTT), ki Tikipunga High School, ki Whangārei.

I whakaū te hui i te hiahia kia whakatuwheratia tētahi Huinga mō Te Reo Māori. I whakaae a TROTT ki te tautoko me te āwhina ki te ārahi i te whakawhanaketanga o te kaupapa nei.

Ngā Kaupae

2019

Te Hui o Te Huarahi Māori Motuhake a te PPTA

I tautohua i ngā wānanga tuatahi te korenga o tētahi Huinga mō Te Reo Māori. I kōkiritia kētia e Johnny Waititi te kaupapa, engari me whai rauawa, me whai haumi, e koke ai te kaupapa.
