Te Ahi Kaa 101

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr S. Hirini.

Te Ahi Kaa is a Māori Environmental Science based course which draws from both environmental science and tikanga Māori. 

Students from year 10 through to year 13 work in a whānau based class setting that works to enhance the significant natural attributes of Taita College. 

They learn about native species and fauna, learn about Māori concepts of time, values and lore as well as about the environmental management of exotic species and fauna. 

This course will assist students who are interested in science, the environment, the outdoors, manual work and community resilience. 

Te Reo will be used in this course.
