Kōrero Q: What is a Cultural Narrative?

A cultural narrative recognises the historical relationship between the area and its mana whenua. It describes what is unique about the place and the people your school is part of. It helps build a common understanding of heritage, traditional and spiritual connections, and values.  - - quoted from - https://www.educationalleaders.govt.nz › Leading-change​

As this is read aloud think about what it is trying to teach about Māori values, traditional & spiritual connections.
