Tohu reorua - Bilingual signage at Forté

24th November 2023

Tēnā koutou katoa, e te iwi

At Forté Health we’re committed to providing a welcoming environment for everyone – it’s part of a commitment to excellence that helps set us apart.

As part of ensuring all our patients feel comfortable and at ease, we’ve started the process of updating our signage so it’s bilingual.

To help us we've worked with te reo teacher and communications advisor Solomona Davis and accredited translator Regan Stokes to create the new tohu reorua, the new bilingual signage that you can now see around Fortē Health. 

It’s an important project, an opportunity to promote our national language in the health sector – a place where equity is hugely important. 

You can watch this video to take a tour of our new bilingual signage, understand what the reo means, and for those who are still learning te reo, hone up on your pronunciation.

Over time we’re looking forward to updating more of our spaces with tohu reorua – stay tuned!

Nōreira, ka haeretāua.
