## What is Kia mau ki te Ūkaipō?

Ko te whāinga o tēnei rauemi kia mātua tipu mai ngā tamariki katoa i runga i te mōhio ki te takenga mai o ngā ingoa wāhi hirahira nō roto o Hauraki, nō konā, tā rātou hononga ki te whenua. Mā tēnei te māramatanga pai ake ki te wāhi o Hauraki e whakatairanga, me te whakatairanga hoki i te mōhiotanga ki ngā hononga ki te whenua mō ngā ākonga, kaiako, whānau, hapū, me ētahi iwi anō hoki puta noa i Aotearoa whānui.

The objective of this resource is to ensure that all tamariki grow up learning how the significant place names within Hauraki were named and hence their connection with te whenua. This will promote a better understanding of the place Hauraki, as well as promote understanding of connection with te whenua for ākonga, kaiako, whānau, hapū, and other iwi across Aotearoa.

Interactivity has been used to create an immersive experience with an original, image-rich narrative.  Features include:
-       Narration in te reo Māori perfectly synchronised with text
-       Swipe to Read, Tap to Spell and Read aloud functions.
-       Subordinate narration and text in English that can be toggled to access
-       A record yourself function that enables readers to record their own or whānau narration, and overlay it in the app.

Notes for teachers that are accessible inside the App include support on curriculum links, learning activities, vocabulary, a list of further resources available, and references.
