New Zealand is a country with a lot of trees. Sometimes the trees are
cut down and the logs are sent to other countries. The other countries
use the logs to make things. These countries can make a lot of money
from the things they make.
Let’s
imagine a place in New Zealand like the one shown in this picture.
Ko Aotearoa nei tëtahi whenua he maha ngä
räkau. I ëtahi wä ka poroa ngä räkau, ka tukuna
ngä poro räkau ki täwähi. I ërä whenua
ka whakamahia ngä poro räkau hei hanga rawa. He nui te moni
ka uru mai ki ënei whenua mö ngä rawa kua hangaia e rätou.

Commentary:
Mäori students in Mäori immersion (MI) settings scored statistically
significantly higher than did Mäori students in general education
(GEd) settings. The MI students seemed to be much more aware of local
economic and employment considerations, while having higher concern about
health risks. |
