Compulsory te reo Maori

Allen from Red Hill

I am against compulsory te reo Maori for a number of reasons. If people wanted to preserve the language why didn't they teach it at home like a lot of our immigrants do, why should we pay because they were too lazy to do it. If folk want to learn it I have not problem, but to make it … View moreI am against compulsory te reo Maori for a number of reasons. If people wanted to preserve the language why didn't they teach it at home like a lot of our immigrants do, why should we pay because they were too lazy to do it. If folk want to learn it I have not problem, but to make it compulsory is wrong. Also te reo Maori is not the true language of the Maori as they had a number of dialogues. Te reo Maori of today is a made up language as they never had works for even things like car, bike, plane, etc. If you listen to a number of other nationals you will hear them use english words like "hard Drive" for a computer because when it was created it was called it a hard drive, they didn't create a new name for it. I am not writing this out of disrespect for Maori folk as I have some very real Maori friends, I just don't think it should be compulsory.

Hi neighbours,

Do you think primary teachers and principals should be striking? Thousands of teachers have taken industrial action on Wednesday, with dozens of rallies planned around the country. They aim to gain attention for better pay, conditions and incentives to attract new teachers. Although about 30,000 people in the profession are involved in the strike, not everyone agrees with it.

So, what are your thoughts on the strike? Do you think teachers deserve better pay? Or should they have stayed around the negotiating table for longer? Are you a teacher or parent with views on the topic? Let us know in the replies!
