Wero Mai, A Maori Board Game

Grace from Island Bay

Want to learn more Te Reo Maori? Love board games? Want to get the kids off electronic devices and interacting with the family or with their friends?

Well, WERO MAI is a MAORI BOARD GAME for beginner Te Reo Maori Learners.

Wero Mai is a Young Enterprise business that has created a Maori board game to educate kiwis on Maori language and culture. The game is an interactive tool that allows for beginner Te Reo Maori learners to learn basic vocabulary in a fun social way. Only 3.7% of kiwis speak fluent Te Reo Maori and Wero Mai values kaitiakitanga and wants the language to be sustained as it is one of New Zealand’s three official languages.

Wero Mai is a bilingual flashcard game that can be played individually or in teams. The game covers a range of topics such as months, days, numbers, wildlife, Maori culture and NZ places. The game is filled with challenges like our Taniwha, which maximises learning and involvement from all players! The question based game brings families and friends together, off electronic devices and allows for players to learn more about Maori language and culture.

For more information, click on Wero Mai’s website where you can also order the game (delivery available). weromaiwegc.wixsite.com...

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
