This week is Maori Language week, it has been celebrated for over 30 years, The Māori Language Week theme for 2009 is "Te Reo i te Hapori - Māori Language in the Community." and how they got it out to the community of this year is the popular childrens cartoon Spongebob Squarepants on nickelodeon has (for this week only) converted its language to Maori.Since 1975 Māori Language Week has been an opportunity for us to speak it, or to show our support to speakers of te reo Māori. Join us in 2009 as we celebrate te reo Māori - the Māori language.
