Community inspired by Te Reo

Te Reo is the inspiration for Whangaparaoa Library’s first ‘art trail’ in celebration of Maori language week.

The works, hung throughout the library, were contributed by local artists, schools (including Whangaparaoa College and Gulf Harbour School) and early childhood education providers.

Children’s librarian Anaru Bickford says the trail is a fantastic way for the community to learn about Te Reo and Tikanga Maori as well as for children to share their art.

Maori language week was last week, but the works will be on display at the library until September 16.
