Te Rourou Iti ā-Haere
Waiata Files - Series One through Three
Te Rourou Iti ā-Haere is a collection of waiata released across three series. Our project aims to support the revitalisation of reo Māori and Raukawatanga by providing waiata resources (audio files and lyrics) that are meaningful, engaging and easy to access.
Together, the compilation includes commonly sung waiata heard throughout the takiwā and beyond, along with waiata from Mōtai Tangata Rau. Many different whānau and groups took part in the recordings, reflecting the diversity of our iwi and takiwā.
The compilation serves to support personal or group learning, wānanga and also our 16 paepae across the takiwā. Our waiata are across a number of platforms, making it easy to download, stream or add to your playlist. Whether you’re doing chores, at mahi or out for a jog, it’s easy to push play and get your waiata gains each day.
