Come celebrate Māori language week - RTH on the whenua NCN

The name of the theme "Ake ake ake – A Forever Language’. It represents the resilience, adaptability and endurance of our language" We'll be spending this session out on the whenua that circles the Ngau-te-ringaringa skatepark where we'll be out investigating and plotting where some of our local medical plants are that were and are important to Māori people for their medicinal/rongoā properties. We'll also learn how these rongoā are used and what they're used for. We'll then carefully be entering these plants into @iNaturalist so we can together build a map detailing how abundant and well-stocked our hapori are for these taonga. 

While on hui, there'll be opportunities for people to explore and adventure so remember to bring comfy shoes, weather-appropriate kākahu and a keen attitude for learning a bit more about our beautiful reo.

If you're interested in bringing your device to learn about using iNaturalist you're welcome to do so but we'll also have a shared device so people without their device can still participate
