Kōrero: Te Māori i te ohanga – Māori in the economy

Ngā waka, wāpu, Tāmaki

Maori canoes, Auckland wharf

E kitea ana ngā kaihokohoko Māori ki te taha matau o Queen Street, arā anō ētahi kei roto i te waka, kei te taha mauī. I taetae mai ngā Māori mā runga i ō rātou waka ki Tāmaki ki te mahi hokohoko. Nāwai, ka whakamahi rātou i ō rātou ake kaipuke ki te kawe i ō rātou painga ki ngā mākete kei Tāmaki.

This site is very useful when it comes to getting information about Māori and New Zealand, and this has also got a lot of really good information about New Zealand's history as well as Māori history. I would very well recommend this website to my friends and family and it definitly will be useful in social studies. Thanks
