Kiwa Digital

Kiwa Digital Kiwa Digital is a world-leading cultural creative agency. At KIWA®, we pride ourselves on using cutting edge technology to create cutting edge experiences.

Founded in 2003 by award-winning film and television producer Rhonda Kite, KIWA® was initially established as a post-production software company. Our first software product was Voice-Q, a tool designed to automatically dub foreign-language dialogue in movies. Voice-Q is used in studios worldwide, including at Disney and 20th Century Fox, and in 2007 won the prestigious Hollywood Post Alliance Engi

neering Excellence Award. After helping to revolutionise the post-production industry, KIWA® began to look at doing the same thing for books. Despite advances made in digital publishing, creating e-books today is seen as little more than creating an electronic representation of the same text and images. At KIWA®, we see technology as an enabler. To us, an unused feature is a missed opportunity. We go a step further than scanning and reformatting content — we add to it and rarify it, making worlds come to life in a way authors have always wished for. KIWA® experiential books are kinaesthetic and tactile. Our titles are not just books; they are immersive, interactive, and instructive experiences.

Pacific Language Weeks are a celebration of the rich languages of the Pacific here in Aotearoa and we are proud to support these through our technology. Developed for Ma’au Books, this app is designed for families. It introduces basic Samoan, Tongan and Fijian language through bath time - including the basics of vowel pronunciation, simple sentences for easy learning, and a child-friendly user interface! As the authors say “By surrounding our babies with strong and positive cultural learning interactions, we enable them to carry their home into the future."

In collaboration with Ma’au Books, this app is designed for families to learn basic Samoan, Tongan and Fijian language through bath time.

Congratulations to Mahi Pai🌈 ! Celebrating tamariki potential with love, positivity, and inclusivity

🎉 Kia ora whānau! We’re so excited to finally share that the Mahi Pai Uenuku App is live – and it’s completely free!

We’ve created this app because we believe te reo Māori is for everyone—whether you’re just starting out or already on your journey. It’s our way of giving back to our tamariki and helping whānau across Aotearoa and beyond to learn and embrace our beautiful culture in a fun, meaningful way.

Join our magical Mahi Pai Taniwha and friends on a colourful adventure where tamariki can learn the colours of the Uenuku 🌈 through waiata, te reo Māori activities, NZSL, and more. It’s packed with learning, culture, and joy that brings te ao Māori to life.

The best part? It’s a native app, so once you’ve downloaded it, your tamariki can play and learn anytime—even offline! Perfect for long car rides or quiet afternoons at home. Plus, you can celebrate every step of your journey by sharing achievements with your whānau and friends, helping to connect and inspire those around you.

Download today and let your tamariki (and you!) start learning, growing, and having fun with Ngā Mahi Pai Taniwha and Friends! 🌟

Haere mai—let’s start this journey together! 🖤💛❤️
