Whakauru Whānau Hou

Induction for New Whānau

Kupu whakataki

Introduction

Ko te Kōhanga Reo, he here ā-whānau ki te reo me ōna tikanga. 

Ka tū te whakaurutanga o ngā whānau me ngā mokopuna hou ki ia Kōhanga Reo, ā, he motuhaketanga tō ia Kōhanga Reo me ō rātau ake wawata, moemoeā hoki. Ko ngā mokopuna te manawa o taua moemoeā – koirā tō rātau mana motuhake. Ko te kaingākau ka whakakotahitia mai e mātau ka āwhina ki te whakatinana i te moemoeā, ko ngā piki me ngā heke ka tukia tahitia. 

He huinga herenga ka whakaraupapahia e ia Kōhanga Reo tō rātau tūtohinga, ka tonohia e rātau ngā whānau ki te whakapau kaha hai wāhanga o tā rātau kaupapa whakauru. 

Ka noho ko Ngā Pou e Whā hai wāhanga nui o te kōrero me ngā whānau hou. 

 

Kōhanga Reo is a whānau commitment to te reo me ona tikanga.

Induction of new whānau and mokopuna happens in each Kōhanga Reo and each Kōhanga Reo has a uniqueness and their own aspirations and dreams. The mokopuna are the heart of that dream – it is their birthright. The value we bring together helps to turn the dream into reality, with the good times and the challenges all being faced together. 

There are a set of obligations each Kōhanga Reo will outline in their tūtohinga (charter), which they will ask whānau to commit to as part of their induction programme.

Ngā Pou e wha will be a key part of the kōrero with new whānau. 

Ngā Pou Matua o Te Kōhanga Reo

Mehemea tātou ka ū ki ēnei kaupapa here, ka hua mai 

Ko te ora o te reo haere ake nei 

Ko te ūkaipō o te ao Kōhanga Reo 

Ko te manaaki a te whānau i te kaupapa  

ko te mahitahi a te katoa o te whānau  

Ko te kaha ake o te kauanuanu me te aroha o tētahi ki tētahi 

Ko te tau o te rangimārie i waenganui i te katoa o te whānau 

 

Te Pou 1. Ko te reo Māori anake i roto i Te Kōhanga Reo ia rā, ia rā 

  • E taea ana e ngā mātua te ako i te taha o ngā mokopuna 

  • He uara nui tō te kaumātua i roto i Te Kōhanga Reo  

  • Ko te reo me ngā tikanga te tūāpapa o Te Kōhanga Reo 

  • Ko te reo kia tika, ko te reo kia rere, ko te reo kia Māori 

 

Te Pou 2. Ngā Whakahaere a te Whānau 

  • Me whai wāhi te katoa o te whānau ki roto i ngā whakahaere o Te Kōhanga Reo, kia kapi ai ngā kaupapa katoa, mai i te Tūtohinga ki te ūkaipōtanga o te kōhanga reo 

  • Me āwhina tētahi i tētahi  

  • Me ako te katoa i ngā āhuatanga e pā ana ki Te Kōhanga Reo 

  • Whakanuia te tangata i ngā wā katoa 

  • He wāhi e tino rangona ana te tūrangahakoa inā uru atu te tangata ki roto i te Kōhanga Reo 

Ki te kotahi te kākaho ka whati, ki te kāpuia e kore e whati 

 

Te Pou 3. Kia Tū Tika, kia Tū Pono ki te Kaupapa Ngākaunuitia 

  • tō tātou Atua 

  • ā tātou mokopuna 

  • ō tātou tīpuna 

  • ō tātou whānau, hapū, iwi 

  • a koe anō, tētahi ki tētahi hoki 

Me whakaaro anō hoki te taha pūtea mai i te Kāwanatanga 

 

Te Pou 4. Te Whaioranga, te Whakatūpato me te Taiao 

Tauiratia ngā whanonga e ora pū ai te hinengaro, te wairua, te tinana o te mokopuna, engari me whakatūturu te tohu manaaki rangatira 

Whakaahuru mōwaitia te ahurea o Te Kōhanga Reo: 

  • Kia ngākau māhaki 

  • Kia pai te wairua o te kōrero 

  • Tiakina ngā mokopuna i runga i te rangimārie 

  • Whāngaia ki ngā kai e tika ana 

  • Kia auahi kore 

  • Kai tupeka kore 

  • Kai hiko kore 

  • Kai rauhea kore 

  • Kai waipiro kore 

Tūwhitia te hopo, mairangatia te angitū
