Year 10 Te Waharoa
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Whaea D. Day.
Te Waharoa year 10 will be offered in Term 4 only and provides a Mātauranga Māori focus for learners, representing the beginning of the journey from the ‘gateway’ towards the whare tipuna of the marae. This course is ideal for students with a passion for Māori knowledge and culture. Students choose their topic area and can complete NCEA 1 standards. For the first four weeks of Term 4, year 10 students will be in class with the NCEA level students before they leave for externals.
Course Content
Te Waharoa draws on the NCEA unit standards based on tikanga (culture) and mātauranga (knowledge) Māori. The course is flexible and can be tailored to students’ interests. It draws from standards and resources that focus on a wide range of areas, both modern and traditional, such as Taonga Pūoro, Whakairo, New Māori Music, Mau Rākau, Reo Māori Media, Māori Tourism, and Manaaki Marae. Standards listed below are an indicative sample of what is available.
