Ngā Kaporeihana Māori, ko tēnei tētahi o ngā
pukapuka ka tukua nei e te Kooti Whenua
Māori hei āwhina i te hunga Māori - me te
katoa e whai whakaaro ana ki ēnei take – kia
mārama ai rātou ki ngā take whenua Māori o
ēnei rā.

Ko tēnei tētahi o ngā pukapuka o te Kooti

tōna tūranga hei Kaiwhakawā Matua o Te Kooti Whenua Māori. Ko Te Kooti Whenua
Māori tētahi o ngā kōti tawhito rawa atu i Aotearoa nei, ā, he pūmau hoki āna mahi
ki te āhuatanga o te hāpori Māori me te ōhanga Māori”.
