Opening sentence
Kia kaua e riro he kotahi eka anō o te whenua Māori.
“Tiakina ā tātou tamariki. Tātaritia ngā kōrero ka tae ki ō rātou taringa. Whakaarohia ngā mea ka kitea e rātou. Nā te mea, ko te āhua o te tipu a ngā tamariki, koia anō hoki te tipu o Aotearoa.”
Anei te kōrero nō Te Whaea o te Motu, a Whina Cooper e horapa rongonui ana i a Aotearoa. I tino mau ahau i te kōrero nei i a au e tiaki ana i aku tamariki, ngā pīpī paopao, tae noa ki te ao o te taiohi. Kua harikoa taku ngākau ki te pānui i te pukapuka nei. Kāore anō ahau i tino ruku i te katoa o tā Whaea Whina Cooper tupuranga, kua tutuki pai te pūrakau i ngā piki me ngā heke o tana ao.
E tika ana ki te mihi ki te kaiwaituhi, nā tana auahatanga ka kitea ngā kanohi Māori, ngā kākahu o te wā i mua, te taiao, te ao Māori kia whakatinana ai te pūrākau. E tino hāngai ana ngā pikitia ki te pūrākau.
He taonga tēnei pukapuka nā te pūrakau ki roto nō reira e tika ana te uhi mārō e haumaru ai te kōrero ki roto. Ka nui te mihi aroha ki a David Hill, nāna te kōrero i tuhi, Ka nui te mihi matakuikui ki a Stacey Morrison, nāna te kōrero i whakamāori. Nō mātou, ngā kaipānui i te ao Māori, i te ao katoa te waimarie ki te pupuri i ēnei momo taonga tuku iho.
