Te Reo Rangatira
Presented by Nepia Takuira-Mita, Te Reo Rangatira focuses on the revitalisation of the Māori language by following the journey of those who have risen to the challenge of learning Te Reo Māori as a second language. Each person shares their personal challenges with identity, whanau, iwi, mahi, and mental health and how learning reo has enriched their lives.
