Our Values
Our values and the things we value, underpin our school culture and philosophy.
They influence our decision-making and are expressed in the ways we think and act.
Aumangea – Resilience
He toka tū moana
A rock standing firm in the sea
Eke Panuku – Personal Best
Whāia e koe te iti kahurangi; ki te tūohu koe, me maunga teitei
Seek that treasure that you value most dearly, if you have to bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain
Atawhai – Kindness
Aroha mai, aroha atu
Love received, love returned.
Ākonga – Learner
Mā te huruhuru ka rere te manu
Adorn the bird with feathers so it may soar.
There’s always room to grow. Learning a new skill, solving problems, and helping others are just some of the many “feathers” you can wear in order to soar high. The more strengths you have, the higher you’ll fly!
