Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori: Purea Nei with LINZ
And that's our programme for Friday and for Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori - almost. We've been talking a lot about how to speak te reo, but to end this week, we've decided to bring you a little bit of singing in te reo. Susie has been joined in the studio by 20 or so members of the waiata group from Land Information New Zealand who work a few stories above us in Radio New Zealand House in Wellington. Leading the group in Paula Dixon. They tautoko RNZ's celebration of Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori, with the waiata Purea nei, the writing of which is attributed to Hirini Melbourne.
