Every year since 1975 Aotearoa/New Zealand has marked Māori Language Week. This is a time for all New Zealanders to celebrate te reo Māori (the Māori language) and to use more Māori phrases in everyday life.

This year Māori Language Week is from 9th Mahuru (September) to 15th Mahuru.  The theme this year is 'Kia Kaha te Reo Maori:  Let's make the Maori Language Strong.'
Māori Language Week helps us remember ‘Arohatia te Reo – cherish the language’.
