A 15-year-old’s speech encouraging people to pronounce Māori words correctly is going viral on social media. Kapiti College student Finnian Galbraith wrote the speech on Te Reo for a competition last year. On the eve of Māori Language Week, one of the year 11 student’s teachers suggested he post it online, to share the message with a wider audience.
