The perilous state of the Maori language in Aotearoa continues to have an impact on the social, cultural and linguistic identity of Maori. Despite this critical state, Maori have been at the forefront of language revitalisation amongst Indigenous peoples globally. For over 30 years Maori have worked towards reversing language shift through different language revitalisation movements. These diverse language revitalisation initiatives recognise the importance of immersion wananga in not only the acquisition of language and culture but also in understanding and appreciating Maori identity. This thesis will examine the significance of immersion wananga and how this uniquely Maori pedagogical paradigm extends the student's learning experience beyond just the acquisition of language.
