 Ngā taonga tukutuku aroha – wāhanga tuatahi 

Nā Mereiwa Broughton nō Taranaki

Tēnei e whakamārama ake nei o taku ako kura me aku āwhina e hāpaitia ake nei e ngā taonga i roto i Tōna Korōria me te whakakaupapatanga i ā mātau akoranga ki te tini, ki te mano, ki te iwi whānui e noho ake nei i roto i Te Whanganui a Tara me ngā roherohe. Hai tuatahitanga, hai kāwaitanga i ngā mahi kei roto i taku kura e akotia nei i runga i te aroha, te tūmanako, te whakapono, me te pūmau o tēnā whānau, o tēnā whānau.  

Tihei Mauriora. 

Ngā kaupapa Pareanganga tūtangata o Aotearoa whānau. 

Tuatahi – ko te wairua tapu o Io Matua Te Kore. 
Tuarua – ko te reo. 
Tuatoru – ko ngā kaupapa. 
Tuawhā – ko ngā maunga. 
Tuarima – ko ngā awa. 
Tuaono – ko ngā moana. 
Tuawhitu – ko ngā ngahere. 
Tuawaru – ko ngā manu a Tāne. 
Tuaiwa – ko ngā marae ātea. 
Tekau – ko ngā tūpuna whare i runga i te marae ātea. 
Tekau mā tahi – ko Rongorongo, ko te wharekai. 
Tekau mā rua – ko ngā whānau whānui. 
Tekau mā toru – te honotanga o tētahi waka ki tētahi waka. 
Tekau mā whā – ngā pōw'iri. 
Tekau mā rima – ngā paepae tapu. 
Tekau mā ono – he kōrerorero, he whakawhitiwhiti kōrero. 

Ko te wairua tapu o Io Matua Te Kore e noho mai rā i te āiotanga, i te teiteitanga o te aranga, ki te pūmautanga o Tōna Korōria, me te kāhui wairua. Koia nei ētahi o nga taetanga o te āiotanga o te rangi; he poroporo, he pango, he mā, he māwhero, he kahurangi, he kōwhai, he karaka, he whero, he parauri, he kākāriki, he māota, he kōpurupuru, he wai kouka. 

Ko te inoi e ākona e ahau ki aku tauira i roto i aku mahi, ko te inoi a Te Ariki. He aha i tohi e au ko tērā? Nōtemea, kei te hōmai e Ia he taro, kei te hōmaitia e Ia ngā taonga katoa i roto i tērā karakia. Te rangatiratanga, me Tōna Korōria, ā, tae atu hoki mō te muru i ngā hara. 

Ko te reo. Tēnei mea a te kui, a te koroua i ōku wā, he noho, he whakarongo, he titiro, ā, ka mau ētahi paku kōrero, anā kua hoatu atu, anā kua mau i ahau te āhuatanga i ngā kōrero o aku mātua. Ko te reo kōrero, he mauri anō tō te wā'ine, he mauri anō hoki tō te mea tāne. Anā, kua haere te kura, kua hoatu anō tētahi pitopito kōrero kia mōhio ai. Kei te hoki atu i runga i te rārangitanga o te kaupapa o te reo e kīia nei a, e, i, o, u. Ka kaokao haeretia mai: 

a haka, mana, parata, mana, ngawhā; 

e heke, mene, perete, mene, ngewhē; 

i hiki, mini, piriti, mini, ngiwhī; 

o hoko, mono, ponoto, mono, ngowhō 

u huku, munu, purutu, mungu, nguwhū; 

a, e, i, o, u. 

Ka hoki pērā atu taku ako kia mau ai hoki i a rātau. Kia pai ai hoki te tuhituhi i ngā kupu e tika ana. Kei te rite ki te kupu pēnei. Haria, me kōrero pēnei tātau. Me pēnei te kōrero i te reo Māori. Anā, ka tuhituhi arā, te kupu pērā. Me haere pērā koutou i te huarahi, kaua e haere pōnānā, engari kia āta haere i runga i te huarahi. Me haere pēnā ki runga Māori, ki runga whakaaro. Anā, kia tika ai hoki te whāngai, ka mau i te mokopuna. Nā, tae rawa atu hoki ki te ako pēnei, pēnā, pērā, me pērā te whakaemi i ngā pēnei. Ka whakahokia atu ki roto i ō rātau whare, ka whakahokia atu ki te taha o nga pukapuka. Me pēnei kua kohikohingia, kua kaokaongia, kua whakatakoto pēneitia, ki te taha rānei i nga pukapuka, kia kore e ngarongaro. Ērā kupu e toru, e rārangitia ana i roto i te wāhanga nui tonu o tēnei mea i te kupu, o te kupu kōrero, a te iwi Māori. 

Ko ngā kaupapa. Ko ngā tohutohu e hoatutia nei e ahau ki aku tauira, i roto i ngā ako kura tae atu ki Orongomai; me whakarongo, me titiro, me tuhituhi. Tuhituhia nga taonga e tuhituhitia nei e ahau. Ko ētahi taonga ātaahua e tautoko ake nei ahau i Aotearoa, kia haere mai te tini, te mano, te mokopuna, kia hokihoki mai anō ki roto i ō rātau waka patapatai ai ki ō rātau kuia, ō rātau koroua, ō rātau pāpā, me o rātau whaea, kia mahi tahi ai rātau, kia hikina ai rātau i roto i nga kaupapa. He aha ai? Kia kore tātau te iwi Māori e ngaro i a wai tangata, i a wai iwi. Mā tātau anō hoki tātau e tohutohu, mā tātau anō hoki tātau e ako ki te pupuri i ngā taura here mai rānō i te tīmatanga o te rangi me te whenua, haere noa atu ki roto i ngā rau tau tae atu ki te rua mano. 

Aku tito waiata mō aku tauira e pā ana ki te iwi, e pā ana ki te ao whānui. Ngā waiata e rite ki te hiahia a ngā tamariki o tēnei wā, ā, tae atu hoki ki ngā waiata tawhito i roto i nga pātere. Nōtemea kei te hiahia rātau ēnei taonga hei kīnaki i ngā kōrero. 

Ko ngā maunga.  Ko ngā wahanga o ngā roherohe e pā ana ki ngā ingoa o ō tātau tūpuna i raro i ngā maunga o Aotearoa. Tēnei e whai ake nei. Ko Taranaki, ko Waitara; mai Waitara ko Te Hāwera; mai Te Hāwera ko Opuanaketau; mai Opuanaketau ko Pātea; mai Pātea ko Manutahi; mai Manutahi ka haere mai ki Kakaramea; mai Kakaramea ko Pātea; mai Pātea ko Wairoaiti, mai Wairoaiti ko Ngā Rauru, Ngātimaika, mai i Ngātimaika ki ngā Waierua; mai i nga Waierua ko Whanganui; ā, ki roto hoki te whānuitanga o Pūtiki Wharaunui i raro i ngā parirau o Ruapehu; ā, ko Kaw'aiki, ka mutu ko Parikino, ka haere atu ki Rānana, ki Pipiriki, ki Hiruharama, ka piki atu ki Taitihi; ka haere atu ki te kīngi o ngā maunga, a Rongo, ki Ohākune. Ka mutu ka piki atu tātau ki roto o Taumarunui, a, ki Taupiri maunga, ki Tūrangawaewae. Ka whakapiki ake rā ki Ngāti Whātua; ka haere ake ki Ngā Toki Matawhaorua ki Hikurangi; ki Panguru ki Te Ti; ki roto hoki Tamatire, Tāmaki Makaurau. Ka hoki haere mai ka whakatere ake ki Tauranga Moana, ā, tae atu hoki ki Te Arawa, ā, ka titiro ake hoki ki Rotorua, ā, ka whakawhiti atu rā ki Kawerau, ki Onepū, ki Te Teko, ā, tae atu hoki ki Pūtauaki, Tataupounamu, Purapura Whetū; ka haere atu ki roto o Tāneatua ki Whakatāne, ā, ki Maunga Pōhatu, ā, tae atu ki Taiarahia, ā, ki Manawaru, ka haere atu hoki ki roto i te rohe pōtae o Tuūhoe, ki te Waimana, ki Ruatoki. Kātahi ka whakapiki ake ki roto o Hikurangi, Te Marotiri, ki Tūranga nui a Kiwa. 

Ā, ka hoki haere mai ki roto hoki i te kauhanga nui o Te Tairāwhiti o Horouta. Ka haere mai ki roto o Kahungunu, ki Te Wairoa, ā, ka heke haere mai ki Heretaunga, ka whakapiki ake rā ki te maunga Kahurānaki Te Whatuiāpiti, Te Hāpuku, ka nuku mai nei ki Nukutaimemeha, a, ki te Pō Tangaroa, ki te Wairarapa ko Rangitāne; ko Kahungunu ki Rimutaka; ki Orongomai tae atu hoki ki Arohanui Ki Te Tangata, Tatau o te Pō, ka whakapiki ake nei ki Pipitea, ki Te Herenga Waka, Te Kura Tini, ki Tapu te Ranga, ki Tangi te Keo, ka whakawhiti atu ki te Moana o Raukawa ko Aoraki, ko Wairau. Ka mutu, ka haere atu ki Ōtautahi, ā, tae atu hoki ki Āraiteuru, Murihiku, ki Timaru, ki Oamaru, ka whakatau atu rā ki Wharekauri, i pupuritia ai e ō tātau tūpuna mātua. Ka hoki mai tātau ki roto o Ngāti Toa, ki Takapūwāhia, ki Parirua, mai Whitireia ki Waikanae; ki Muaupoko, ki Rangitāne, ā, ki Raukawa. Ka whakapiki ake rā ki roto te āhuatanga e noho mai nei te Kauhanganui o Tainui, te rohe pōtae o Tainui i roto i ēnei kārangarangatanga 

Ko ngā awa e tuku atu nei nō taku rohe. Ko te awa o Waitara, ko te awa o Pātea, ko te awa o Te Hāwera, ko te awa o Ngā Rauru, ko te awa o Ngā Waierua, ko te awa hoki o Whanganui. Nei te awa kei te taha o te marae, anā ko ngā kai i roto i tērā awa, he tuna, he koura wai, he piharau, he kākahi, he wātakirihi, he pūhā. Kapi katoa ēnei kai ki ērā o ngā awa. 

Ko ngā moana. Anā, ko ētahi o ngā mahi e mahia ana e ahau, he titiro ki a Tangaroa i te takutai moana. Ka honohono atu ahau i roto i ngā āhuatanga he aha ngā pēpē a Tangaroa e tiaki ana. Anei e hoatungia ana. Ko te moenga tonu o te takutai moana, ko te oneone e hīkoitia ana e te tangata. Mai rānō e ngā ika kei roto i te moana. Ko ētahi o ā mātau kai i te taima e tamariki ana, ka haere mātau ki te kohikohi pipi, anā ka tuitui. Ka tuitui ki te harakeke mō te whakamaroke. Kia haere ai hoki ki te kura, anā kua whakaemingia e Māmā ki roto ki ngā tina a ngā mokopuna hei ngaungau. He rite ki te pia e kōrerotia nei e tauiwi. Koia nei ngā pia o mua. Ā, ko ētahi, ka tuitui mātau, i ngā pāua. Kia maroke, ka whakairi, ka whakaemi, mō te takurua, mō te haere o kui mā, o koro ma, ki ngā haere tawhiti. 

Anā kua haere i roto i te ngahere, ki te awa rānei, ki te moana rānei, ka noho, ka āta kai me ngā mokopuna, kia mōhio ai hoki ngā mokopuna ki ēnei kai. Anei i tēnei wā kāre ētahi atu e tuitui ana, engari ko ōku kuia me ōku koroua me oku whānau e mahi tonu ana. Kei te rite ki te mangō e whakamarokengia ana e ngā tūpuna, anā ko te wāhanga hoki o te mangō, he ate. 

Anā, he kai tonu tērā me tēnei mea a te kūmara, me te rīwai. Ko ētahi e whakairingia ake ana. Anā ka mahi pūhā, ka tapatapahi mīti, ka tapahi tētahi wāhanga o te mangō a Tangaroa i te takutai moana. Anā, kei te haere tonu ēnei āhua i roto i ētahi o ō tātau iwi. 

Anā mō te haehae hoki i ngā harakeke kia pai hoki te tuitui i ngā kai nei, he pipi, he pāua, he mangō. He rangatira katoa ēnei kai e kī atu ana ahau ki aku tauira. Kaua e tū te ihu, engari rangona te hā o ngā kai a Tangaroa me ētahi o ngā mauri o te moana. Koia nei te taonga i ora ai hoki ngā mātua tūpuna tae noa mai ki ahau, ā, tae atu hoki ki aku tamariki, me aku mokopuna. 

Engari ko ētahi o ngā taonga e whānui noa atu te hoatu. Ko ngā huatanga o ngā hau, te āhuatanga o ngā kapua, ka hoki atu ki te pūreireitanga o te ihotanga o te tīmatanga o te kupu. 

Ko ngā ngahere. Māra kai, māra putiputi, māra harakeke, māra rākau. Koia nei ētahi o ngā taonga a Tāne Māhuta. Nā, ka haerēre ka titiro ki te ngahere. Kei roto hoki i te ngahere a Tāne Māhuta te oranga tinana, ki ngā rongoā ki nga rākau. Ko wētahi o a tātau kai e rumakihia ana ki roto i te whenua i a Papatūānuku, me ana tamariki, mokopuna, me ana mauri. Ko ngā kai e rumakihia ana e ō tātau tūpuna mātua, e akotia ana hoki ki ngā tamariki, mokopuna, e mātau ana ki te mōhio, ki te hiahia ki te tou kai i roto i a Papatūānuku. 

Te koroua āta haere i haerengia ai e ahau i ngā tau ki muri, he haere titiro i ngā pūhā. Anā he pūhā tiotio, mahi toroī, ā, he pūhā ngāwari, he pai hoki hei kai me te iwi poaka. Koia nei ngā kai e whakaatungia ana e ahau ki a rātau, kia mātau ai hoki rātau, kia kore e tū whakahīhī ki te kī kāhore ahau e pīrangi i ēnā kai. Engari, e whāngaia ana i runga i te tika. Kia hoki atu ki roto i ō rātau iwi, pātai ai ki ō rātau kuia, koroua, ā, tae atu ki o rātau whānau, ki a Māmā, ki a Pāpā, ki te whānau whānui i ēnei āhuatanga o tēnei taonga te tuku ake. 

Ko ngā manu a Tāne. Kei roto i Te Wharekura 43 arā, Ngā Māra a Tāne te roanga ake o ngā kōrero a Mereiwa mō ngā manu a Tāne.
