Marriene Langton Principal/Tumuaki
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.

Tania Dalton Foundation gift to our school.

 Fia and her dad came to school with a large box of balls that have been donated to us through the Tania Dalton Foundation. You will recall that Tania was a silver fern who passed away very suddenly. She was well known and liked in sporting circles. Her legacy means that women like Fia can apply for scholarships and continue studying and pursuing careers in sport without the added financial burden. Once again we have been the recipients of a generous gift and our hope is that our school and community will honour that by looking after the equipment and setting high goals for themselves to achieve. Nothing is impossible.
