Marriene Langton Principal/Tumuaki
Tēnā koutou e te whanau. This is my 17th year as tumuaki of our lovely kura. I am one-eyed when it comes to providing the very best education for all of our tamariki, strong connections to whanau and applying Attachment Psychology so every child has a champion adult at our school who believes in them unconditionally. I just can’t see past it. Our kaiako and kaiawhina go the extra 50 miles to give our children the best chances to succeed. My family is number one. After 20 years of camping holidays in Kaiteriteri, Graham and I are recidivist “glampers “ and ready for new adventures in our latest caravan. It’s brilliant when our family joins us too. I've had the privilege of being part of the design team so we could build a new school after the earthquakes and now we are full-on working with architects to design a new hall. That's a dream we never thought that we would see. Watch this space.

Dancing Like the Stars

It is so much fun (there's that word again so you can see what my personality type is quite clearly) to be able to give our students the opportunities to learn new things. This time it is Rock 'n Roll. The tutors are wonderful with the children and the room is filled with the sounds of children counting " One and two and three and back and ..." MOST of the legs and feet go in the right direction at the same time.
The children will perform later in the term.I'm looking forward to seeing the costumes and the final product. Why wouldn't you want to be a Principal?
