In Jack's school, one entire class period is devoted to preserve Maori culture Te Reo (Maori Language).

Explanation:

Ever since Maori became the official language of New Zealand in 1980, people are ignorant about it. After WW - II, the use of Maori declined rapidly and only after 1980, there is an increase in the number of people speaking Te Reo.

Implementation of Maori as a curriculum of schools will not only increase the people speaking the language but also in preserving the culture of the people.
