3TOI

Level 3 Toi Māori

Course Description

In Level 3 Toi Māori, students will apply their understanding of theoretical and practical knowledge around Māori design and art elements. They will be given project briefs to produce artworks using a range of materials. Students will be encouraged to exhibit artworks in the annual Ringa Toi art exhibition.

The Level 3 Toi programme interweaves daily cultural practices such as taumata (Karakia/ngā kupu a ngā Tūpuna/mihimihi/Waiata) and fosters the values of whanaungatanga - others, whakaiti - humility and manaakitanga - respect.

‘Kia whakatōmuri te haere ki mua’ ‘to walk into the future our eyes must be fixed on the past.’
