2. Te reo Maori in classrooms - Current policy, future practice. Georgina Stewart (2014).

The PCT group had a meeting yesterday, where as a group we discuss different educational readings linked to individual inquiries. One of the readings discussed was around Te re Maori in NZ classrooms. It has a primary focus, but it has good background information around the 'why' we should all increase the use of Te reo. If your inquiry is around Te reo use, then the article is worth a read.

3. 2019 TeachNZ Study Awards are now available to apply for. See https://www.teachnz.govt.nz/teacher-awards for more information.
