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.

West Spreydon School Student Leaders

It is our pleasure to introduce our school leaders for 2017.
The teachers take this job seriously as we look at a variety of situations where we can see the children in operation. The leaders are children first and it is our responsibility to grow them into their leadership jobs. Lucy takes the lead in training and leading our student leaders.
Congratulations everyone.

Oderings/Horticultural Society School Garden Competition Gold Award

For the last three years Janice, Bill and Trish have led the charge to enter our school in this competition. Three entries; THREE GOLD AWARDS.

The judge who does the actual announcements of the awards is a professional garden designer and landscaper. He judges at Chelsea Garden Show, Ellerslie Garden Show and Singapore Gardens. He uses the same criteria when he looks at all of the elements of each school garden.

He takes the time to read every schools submission and compares that to the final product. There is a copy of his talk linked to the school website.
Congratulations everyone.
