This competition is open to one and all so nau mai haere mai. Are you up for the challenge!<\/p>\n

How to play<\/strong>
\nKotahi te Kupu,<\/em><\/strong> for those that didn’t get the opportunity to play last year, is a M\u0101ori spin on the popular 4pics1word<\/em> game where you are given 4 pictures and using the letters provided you must guess the one M\u0101ori word that each picture has in common. The dashes below the pictures give you a clue as to how many letters are in the word needed; with the NG and WH in M\u0101ori counting as one dash. That’s enough clues for now!<\/p>\n
