Whānau & Kaiako 

At least once a year we hold a hui ā-whānau. These hui are of special importance to our whānau Māori but are open to anyone wishing to attend. At these hui we report back on Māori student achievement, development of te reo Māori and tikanga at our school and any other relevant issues.

In 2023 our whānau Māori were invited to a hui facilitated by our Lead Kaiako Māori to identify and share their expectations relating to the qualities they would like to see in our new principal (2024). 

Whānau


We seek to involve whānau across the school and we welcome any whānau members who have a particular skill to share or who wish to learn a skill we are currently working on ourselves. The following include some of the ways in which whānau have recently been involved at our kura.

All teachers seek to develop in their knowledge and understanding of Te Ao Māori. To meet this goal professional development is undertaken when opportunities present.
