I te tau 1972 ka takoto te petihana mō te reo Māori ki te whare paremata. Ko te tono a Ngā Tamatoa me te Rōpū Reo Māori mā kia ākona te reo Māori ki ngā kura katoa. E 30,000 ngā tāngata i haina te petihana, i taupaea i te 14 o ngā rā o Mahuru (ko te rangi o te reo Māori). I poua anō te kokoraho reo Māori ki te Rōpū Whakamana i te Tiriti o Waitangi. I te tau 1986 ka puta te pūrongo a te taraipiunara.

Ko ā rātou mahi tauhea he mau piupiu, he tāmoko i te kupu kanga me te ure ki o rātou tinana tae atu ki te whakatakē i te Māori. Kua roa hoki te whakapā a ngā tauira Māori ki ngā kaiwhakahaere o te wānanga, engari auare ake. Whai muri ka taka ētahi hāmene ki ngā toa o He Tauā, tae atu ki te mahi tūtū puehu.
