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.

School Leaders Games Afternoon














 Our school leaders planned and led a fun afternoon of games for the rest of the school. There was a lot of energy, laughter, collaboration and fun.

The leaders found out first hand how tricky it is to get children to listen to instructions and to follow through on them. It really is like herding cats. The afternoon ended with an ice cream each. A great way to end the afternoon.


We are so proud of our School Leaders. They have shown great perseverance and responsibility over this year. It is not easy being a leader and doubly difficult when you are a child. Libby and Charlotte have provided great leadership and mentoring to the tamariki and guided them through the decision making challenges.
Congratulations to all of our Te Ara Koropiko West Spreydon School Leaders for their mahi this year.
