The combined kapa haka group from Queenstown Primary, St Joseph's, Remarkables Primary and Arrowtown schools will perform at the top of Queenstown Mall on Wednesday, at 11.30am.
The Queenstown Primary group returns to perform on its own on Thursday, possibly at the Bathhouse, from 12.30pm and then Earnslaw Park.
The NZ Haka Charitable Trust will dispatch "te reo police" on to the streets of Queenstown this week about lunchtime.
NZ Haka members, wearing black hoodies with "Haka Chief" written in red on the backs, will ask people if they know a Maori word and what it means.
People who do will be invited to take a lucky dip into a bag of sweets.
Trust co-ordinator Trish Moeke said she was in talks with a radio breakfast show to go on the air and talk about and teach a Maori phrase of the day.
Nga Kete Matauranga Pounamu Charitable Trust, a public health and social services provider with a priority for Maori, officially opens its doors tomorrow at the Gorge Rd Retail Centre.
