He kupu whakamahuki

E manakohia ana e Te Whare Wānanga o Otāgo te tikanga reo rua me te tikanga reo maha. I roto i te toru tau kua taha ake nei e kitea ana i roto i ngā kōrero rangahau kua tāia e whakaaria mai ana te whakaaro he painga kei roto i te whāngai i te tamaiti, i te tangata ki te rua, maha atu rānei o ngā reo. Otirā i tua atu o tērā kei konā anō ētahi hua me te āhei hoki ki te kōrero reo rua me te mōhio ki te ahurea rua.

E kore e taea te whakaora tonu i te reo rua, ahurea rua mā roto atu o te noho ngātahi herekore o te iwi tokoiti o te tokomaha. E ora ai te reo Māori, pērā anō me ngā reo katoa o ngā iwi tokoiti, me āta whakatakoto ngā momo rautaki kia āhei ai tōna kōrerotia i roto i ngā horopaki whānui, ā, kia whānui haere te tokomaha e taunga ana ki te kōrero, me whakarite he tikanga hei whakahau i te hunga mahi me ngā ākonga ki te kōrero, ki te tuhituhi hoki i te reo Māori. 1

E whakaatatia ana te hiranga o te reo i roto i te waiata i titoa mō te hui reo rūmaki a Ngāi Tahu i te marae o Rāpaki i te marama o Kohi-tātea i te tau 1998.

He taoka te reo
He kura pounamu
Iti kahuraki
Māpihi maurea

Kia hokia anō ngā kupu a Tā Hēmi Henare.

The language is the core of our Māori culture and mana. Ko te reo te mauri o te mana Māori (The language is the life force of Māori mana). If the language dies, as some predict, what do we have left to us? Then, I ask our own people who are we?...

Therefore the taonga, our Māori language, as far as our people are concerned, is the very soul of the Māori people. 2

I raro i te Ture o te Reo Māori 1987, he reo tūturu te reo Māori nō Niu Tireni

3. Ko te reo Māaori hei reo tūturu mo Niu Tireni - Ka kiia te reo Māaori e tēnei Ture, hei reo tūturu mo Niu Tireni. 3

Mai i te tau 1997, he rautaki tā te Kāwanatanga hei whakakaha i te reo Māori e whakahaeretia ana e ngā tari kāwanatanga.

E whakamātau ana Te Whare Wānanga ki te whakamana i te Ture o te Reo Māori 1987, ā, e hāngai ana tēnei ki ngā tohutohu a Te Whare Wānanga kua tāia i roto i te Strategic Direction to 2005. E whakatutuki ana anō hoki Te Whare Wānanga i te kupu taurangi o tā Te Whare Wānanga Tūtohinga kia whakatinanatia ngā kōrero o Te Tiriti o Waitangi pēnei:

  • kia kaha ake te whakauru mai a ngā tāngata Māori ki roto i ngā mahi o Te Whare Wānanga
  • kia tiakina, kia whakatairangatia hoki te reo me ngā tikanga Māori i runga i ngā tūmanako me ngā tikanga a te Māori me ngā tikanga o Te Whare Wānanga
  • kia tautokona ngā kaupapa e whakatūria ana e ngā iwi mō ō rātou painga
  • kia rangahau ngātahitia, kia whakaako ngātahitia, kia whakahaere ngātahitia ngā mahi hei painga mō Te Whare Wānanga me ngā iwi Māori
  • kia hāpaitia te rangahau i te reo, i ngā tikanga, i te hauora, i te whakaakoranga, i ngā take o te wā me te hītori, o te Māori 4

Te Whakatairanga i ngā Tikanga Māori

E whakaaetia ana e Te Whare Wānanga ko Ngāi Tahu te mana whenua o ngā peka e rua o Te Whare Wānanga ki Te Wai Pounamu. E whakaaetia ana anō hoki e Te Whare Wānanga ko Ngāti Toa me Te āti Awa te tangata whenua kei te wāhi o Te Whare Wānanga kei reira, ā, ko Ngāti Whātua te tangata whenua kei Tāmaki-makau-rau. Kei aua iwi te mana whakahaere i ngā tikanga o aua wāhanga o Te Whare Wānanga. Me kōrero te Kāhui Hanga Ture Mātauranga o Te Whare Wānanga ki te Komiti mō Te Tiriti o Waitangi, ā, mā taua komiti e whakatau me pēhea ngā tikanga Māori ka whakamahia e Te Whare Wānanga.

Mā te whai pānga o ngā tikanga Māori ki roto i ngā mahi o Te Whare Wānanga ka whakamanahia te āhua tikanga-rua o Aotearoa, ā, tāpiri atu ki tēnā ka manaakitia te hunga mahi me ngā ākonga Māori e Te Whare Wānanga.

E herea ana tēnā reo, tēnā reo ki ngā tikanga a ngā iwi e kōrero ana i aua reo. E tautoko ana Te Whare Wānanga kia haria ngā tikanga Māori e tika ana. Anei ētahi āhuatanga ka taea ngā tikanga Māori te hari hei tauira:

  • te whakatau i ngā manuhiri, ā, me whakatau i runga i ngā tikanga Māori mehemea he Māori kei roto i te ope;
  • te uiui i ngā tāngata kua tono mai mō ngā tūranga mahi, ā, me whakatau i runga i ngā tikanga Māori mehemea he Māori te kaitono;
  • te tā i te kawa o ngā whare hou; me
  • ngā hui.

Whakaakona ai ngā āhuatanga e pā ana ki ēnei e Te Wāhanga Whakapakari i Te Whare Wānanga. Mā te Kaitohutohu Kaupapa Māori o Te Whare Wānanga anō hoki e tohutohu me pēhea ngā tikanga Māori.
