🌿 𝗡𝗮𝘂 𝗺𝗮𝗶, 𝗵𝗮𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗶 𝗸𝗶 𝗧𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝗸𝗶 𝗼 𝗧𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗼 𝗠ā𝗼𝗿𝗶! 🌿

We’ve kicked off the wiki by raising our 𝗧𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝗴 and singing our national anthem in te reo. 🖤🎵

Our 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗼 (challenges) are already underway, and it’s awesome to hear more reo being used around kura! 👏 - Whaea Susi might need to stock up on 𝗿𝗮𝗿𝗲 if she’s going to make it through the whole week rewarding ākonga! 🍬😆

We’ve also added a little more reo to our everyday routines, with 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗼 𝗠ā𝗼𝗿𝗶 now playing for our school bells throughout the day. 🎶

Here’s to a fun week of giving te reo Māori a go, having fun with our language and celebrating its place in our kura.

𝗞𝗶𝗮 𝗸𝗮𝗵𝗮 𝘁𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗼 𝗠ā𝗼𝗿𝗶! 💚

We’re so proud of the mahi, commitment and sportsmanship shown by all players throughout the season, and hugely thankful to our team coaches for their time, energy and support. We appreciate you! 🙌

🏉 Many of our ākonga also play rugby for Suburbs & Horomaka, so it was awesome to see some of them recognised for their efforts this season too. 👏🏆

A special congratulations also to our very own Board member, Tracy, who received an award for her contribution to junior rugby. 💚🏉 So well deserved!
