Tēnā koutou e te whanau. This is my 16th 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 theory 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.

Landscaping 01 November 2021

 Despite the weather and the pesky interruptions of Covid-19, the landscaping is taking shape. The children are allowed back onto the asphalted area as of today and they are very excited about having more space.

The bike/scooter track is epic. There are hollows, dips, jumps, traffic signs, roundabouts, banks and curves. The track weaves in and out of trees and  provides different levels of challenge to match the users' confidence and skill.

Thank you to the school boards, who over successive years, have seen the value of saving reserves for a project like this. Our kura will be second to none in terms of facilities and opportunities for children to thrive.

So many community members have invested blood sweat and tears into our school to build for the future. Thank you to everyone who thought about the generations of children who will pass through this school on their learning journey. We are in a wonderful position to be able to create an environment that will nurture and challenge our current tamariki and the generations to come.
