Teacher in Charge:
By focusing on real life scenarios students will be able to communicate at an intermediate level in the community as well as have more knowledge about their local area. Topics covered are: an historical study of a local tribe, formal welcomes, aspirations and goals for the future, and issues that youth are facing. In addition, students have the option of participating in the inter-school Ngā Manu Kōrero speaking competition. This speech can then be counted towards their Kōrero portfolio.
This course has a localised curriculum which draws on local tangata whenua to share knowledge.
