BILINGUAL LITERACY PROGRAMME LAUNCHED IN FLAXMERESix hundred books along with 600 puzzles all written in English and translated into Māori have been given to the school as safety resources. QR codes help the teachers and children with the correct pronunciation of the Māori langauge (sic), "It's an important component. Te reo is one of our national languages and there is an increasing interest and need for people to speak the language and this is learning for some adults and children," says the principal Fay Wooster.
