Tiki Taiaha Logo
This is our beautiful mural in the foyer of Rooms 10 and 11. It represents our two e-Learning classes, Year 7 Tikis and Year 8 Taiaha. The words are our School values. The blue and red respectively represent our Maunga Karioi (Rm 10) and Pirongia (Rm 11). It was painted by Matua Brady Walker, a young and talented self taught artist who translated our vision onto canvas - ATAAHUA!

Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori
Last week our school celebrated Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori. Highlights for students were the daily "Korero Mai" announcements from Matua Heta, daily lunchtime activities and the use of Kupu in and around our Kura. Room 10 students were enthralled with the musical talents of Adam Whauwhau who visited our classroom. He spoke to the students about keeping alive the Maori language and tikanga and recounting some interesting stories about Maori place names. He then concluded with a Waiata, his guitar playing was legendary - tu meke (awesome) Matua Adam! Room 10's film crew captured one of the Waiata, titiro mai! (have a look)
