Once again our current govt shows it’s disdain for Maōri and te Tiriti.

    Seems to me you were trying to set them up so you could say got’em! with this comment, failed, and said it anyways.

    The irony is you’re asking to EXCLUDE an entire culture because things are not inclusive enough for you.

      As far as I can tell, the books are still part of the curriculum, they are just pushing them slightly up until after the early readers are done with.

      I don’t know who you think wants to exclude a whole culture, especially one that seems so vibrant and strong right now, sounds nutty to me.

      I was just contrasting how well all the folks treat my boy at school in general, dealing with his little weirdnesses and idiosyncracies ( having to wear ear muffs for his auditory issues in Kapa Haka etc. ) with BallpeenHammers “Tough luck if you can’t keep up, we won’t cater to the lowest common denominator”.

      It doesn’t have to be black and white, X wins or Y wins, alot of stuff can get handled well in a primary school education.
