Tipu in Schools brings our award winning app Tipu to Te Reo Māori learning in schools. The gamification of learning ensures that it is always a favourite for tamariki.
Teachers and parents can login to the Tipu in Schools portal to access detailed information about the progress of their tamariki as they use Tipu as part of their Te Reo Māori journey.
Check out Tipu in Schools for more information.
Koi translations allows you to translate to and from Te Reo Māori using Facebook Messenger!
Our Help Portal has further information.
Tipu makes learning Te Reo Māori fun and easy.
Tipu starts with the basics for beginners and its innovative approach personalises words and phrases for each user, so that you don't spend time on material that you already know.
So whenever you are using Tipu, even if it's just a few minutes here and there, it is targeted specifically to you for effective learning and accelerated progress.

For the past 20 years I have predominately held management roles within the retail and hospitality industries.
I started as Accounts Manager at Plink Software for Tipu in Schools in October 2019.
In 2020, Plink Software was nominated as a finalist for the New Zealand Hi-Tech Awards, in the Hi-Tech Kamupene Māori o te Tau – Māori Company of the Year category.
In 2017, Plink Software was nominated as a finalist for the New Zealand Innovation Awards, in the Innovation in Māori Development and Excellence in Social Innovation categories.
Tipu gamifies and personalises the Te Reo Māori learning experience, customising words and phrases to each user, which expedites language acquisition.
We were delighted when our innovative approach was recognised as Highly Commended in the Innovation in Māori Development category.
Over the 2019-20 summer Plink hosted Laurie Lloyd-Jones as part of the Nelson Tasman Intern Programme.
