Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Whānau o Waipapa! 


He akomanga rumaki Te Whānau o Waipapa kei Te Kura o Manunui. E whā ngā akomanga mō ngā ākonga Tau 0-6 kia whāia te reo rangatira me ōna tikanga.

Te Whānau o Waipapa consists of four full immersion Māori classes at Brookfield School that range from ages 5-11 years old (Years 0-6).


E whakarawe ana Te Whānau o Waipapa he tūāpapa hei tūtohu, hei tautoko hoki i te ahurea tuakiri, me te reo o ia tauira.

Our classes provide quality learning environments that acknowledge and support student’s identity, language and culture.


Ka angitu ngā ākonga i tō rātou ara Mātauranga i a rātou e rumakihia ana i roto i te reo Māori me ōna tikanga. Ko Te Reo Matatini me te Poutama Tau ngā akoranga matua, ā, ka ako hoki i ērā atu kaupapa e ai ki te ao Māori. E hāngai ana ngā akoranga ki Te Marautanga o Aotearoa.

Students achieve academic success as they are immersed in te reo Māori me ōna tikanga. There is a strong emphasis on Numeracy and Literacy, as well as focussing on learning through a Te Ao Māori perspective. This is done through the curriculum "Te Marautanga o Aotearoa."
