Native American Community Academy Visit Māori in New Zealand

Just wonderful to see these Indigenous cultures come together! Maori news service Te Karere TVNZ reports to us about a meeting between Native American Community Academy and their Māori sister schools in New Zealand.

They've flown all the way from Albuquerque, New Mexico, in search of language revitalization schemes and relationship building between native cultures. The Native American Community Academy have held a long relationship between Māori since the early 2000's – today they've landed with a whole new fleet of students eager to learn and experience off Māori.

What an amazing experience for these students! I hope a lot of great knowledge and insight was exchanged.
