Aotearoa is celebrating the 50th anniversary of Te Wiki o te Reo Maori - Maori Language Week which begins today
14 September 2025
Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Maori - The Maori Language Commission, says in that time they've gone from a period where te reo Maori was barely heard in public to now being sung in stadiums and spoken in workplaces and homes.
This year New Zealanders are being asked not just to celebrate - but to make te reo Maori a part of daily life - with the commission stating every word counts.
