Heke Mātauranga Māori
Diploma in Mātauranga Māori
From Rangi the sky father to Papa the earth mother and everything in-between, enter into the realm of ‘te ao mārama’ of expanding awareness and seeing the world through Māori eyes.
Stand upon the earth and feel her living heartbeat. Cast your gaze upwards to the eternal sky above.
Know your place in the world, this is te ao mārama. To see the world through Māori eyes is to understand how whakapapa tied our tūpuna to the living, breathing world around them. Mātauranga Māori is the limitless pool of oral tradition and knowledge passed down in an unbroken line built on the foundation of whakapapa, an all compassing network of connection knitting all things together into a whole. Mātauranga Māori allowed our tūpuna to understand, to explain and to interact with the natural world around them.
Heke Mātauranga Māori, incorporating te reo and iwi and hapū studies, is a holistic journey into the Māori world that looks at Māori knowledge as our tūpuna understood it, as we understand it today and as it will be applied tomorrow.
If you are a descendent of the Confederation of Te Āti Awa, Ngāti Raukawa and Ngāti Toa Rangatira, you have the option of studying the Heke Awa, Raukawa, Toarangatira-tanga (HART).
The Heke programme is the first year of the three year Poutuarongo Mātauranga Māori degree.
