The Language Department at Māngere College encourages exploration of language and culture. Our learning area will enhance students' ability to understand and communicate within and across diverse cultures. In our Language Department, we teach five languages: Te Reo Maori, Te Reo Kuki Airani, Lea Faka Tonga, Gagana Samoa and Mandarin. It is compulsory for all Junior levels to take a language of their choice in their junior years 9 & 10. It will then be optional for NCEA senior levels, Years 11-13. All of our language courses are approved subjects for University Entrance.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us via our emails below or view each of our Language Course Overview.

Ko tōu reo, ko tōku reo, te tuakiri tangata. Tīhei uriuri, tīhei nakonako.

(Your language and my language are expressions of identity. May our descendants live on and our hopes be fulfilled )



Nga mihi nui.
