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.

Alive. alive oh

The plan to get the livestock  section up and running is on course. Bill managed to get Muscovy ducks and ducklings and they are in the process of settling into their new home a t West Spreydon School. The chooks were a little precious to start with but they are accepting the immigrants and getting the hang of duck talk.
Janice and Bill found a hidden cache of chook eggs in the orchard where the chooks had been laying a secret stash.
The next plan is for the mini kune kune pigs. They can be on leashes for the children to play with and they need a bath once a week. Let the fun begin.
Just so we are clear, these animals are not bound for the hangi pit. Us townies can't cope with pets being tucker.
