We encourage everyone to come along to the Toi Tū Te Reo Māori Language expo which will be held in the Council's Galleria on Friday (14 September, 2018). The event aims to support our district's commitment to the Rotorua Reorua movement, which encourages everyone to begin or advance their reo Māori journey. The expo is an opportunity for people to see what taonga (treasure) including Māori language resources, online reo programmes and weekly classes are available to help them on their journey.
