JENNY JACOB - KAIRANGAHAU
Ko te mama, he Pakeha no Poihakena. Ko te papa, no nga kawai rangatira o Ngati Raukawa kite tonga. Ko te marae ko Ngatokowaru. Ite Whare Wananga o Wikitoria i roto o te Whanganui-a-tara a ia e ako ana, ka watea te turanga rangahau i roto i te Taura Whiri i te Reo Maori, tere tonu tana kapohia e te Taura Whiri. Ko Jenny Jacob te ingoa o te wahine nei, kei te taitamariki tonu, ara, kaore ano kia torn tekau ona tau, kua whiwhi a ia ki nga tohu matauranga teitei o tauiwi.
No te wiki tuatahi o Pipiri ka takahia te “marae” o te Taura Whiri i te Reo Maori e nga rangatira o Ngati Raukawa. Na ratou i mau mai ta ratou tamahine, mokopuna kite Taura Whiri. I mihia, i hakaritia nga manuhiri, a tutuki pai ana nga whakahaere o taua po.
He mahi tino uaua nga mahi ma te kairangahau. Ko etahi o ana mahi he kimi kupu hou, he kohikohi korero, he whakahaere i nga kura mo te reo, he takawaenga mo te Taura Whiri me etahi atu whakahaere, manatu, tari ranei. Otira, he maha nga mahi mana, kia tupato! Ahakoa te Pakeha o tana ahua, he koi tana wairua mo nga tikanga Maori a, he reo rua hoki. Ka tutaki koutou ki a ia, kaua e hopo, e whakama ranei te korero Maori atu kia a ia.
