Nurturing Tamariki Through Reo Māori

Sustaining Language, Culture, and Identity in Peu Māori

Fluent tamariki become custodians, preserving and revitalizing Reo Māori for future generations.

Cultural Identity & Pride

Tamariki embrace Peu Māori, strengthening their connection to ancestors and traditions.

Language Sustainability

Reo Māori thrives through daily use, ensuring intergenerational transmission and cultural continuity.

Pa Marie Upokotini Ariki

From the Heart of our Queen — Pa Marie Upokotini Ariki

This dream didn’t begin in a boardroom.
It began in a palace.

In the warmth and strength of Pa Marie Upokotini Ariki’s home, the womb of her household, this vision was born. A sacred space where the idea to protect, restore, and breathe life into Te Reo Māori Kuki Airani took its first breath.

From her home to our centre, from her heart to our pēpē — this journey has been one of aro‘a, courage, and leadership.

Next month, we celebrate 12 months since opening our doors.
A full year of nurturing our tamariki in total immersion, surrounded by our reo, our culture, and the deep belief that language is identity.

This would not be possible without Pa Ariki.
She didn’t just support us, she birthed this movement, carried it forward, and placed it in the hands of our community to grow.

Pa Marie Upokotini Ariki, meitaki ranuinui for trusting in our people and planting the seeds for generations to come.

This is your legacy, and we are proud to carry it
