Turanganui a Kiwa Activity Centre

Head over to our Instagram page to see what we’ve been up to ☺️

What an amazing 5 weeks that was! Definitely worth all the moaning before during and after each session! Then every Wednesday we discuss how sore our bodies are but how great we feel! We came, we “sore”, we conquered! Proud of our tauira. Thanks Matua Keenan for coming along with us! We will be back @patu_tahi_boxing_club @live_free_gizzy thank you guys ☺️

IMPORTANT PANUI

Morena whanau.

Due to the current weather conditions and advice from Civil Defence to stay off the roads, we have made the decision to close school today. We hope you all keep warm and safe.

Kia ora whānau.

Still time to apply!

Teaching Opportunity

Our rangatira and pou, Kereama Rakuraku is leaving our centre to take up a role at Lytton High School's building academy. We are going to miss him dearly and he is a huge loss to our students and school community.

We are looking for someone to replace our brother. A full time, permanent position will be advertised on the Education Gazette website very soon. We would like to have someone that has a trades or a building background but it's not a must. We are open to modifying our programme to fit the skills and interests of our new kaiako.

If you know someone that might be interested in working with rangatahi that needs extra support, then please email Naima, [email protected]. You might know of a teacher that wants to move to Gisborne, please let them know about this opportunity. We would love for them to apply, even if they are new graduates. The position starts in Term 2.

Thank you for your time.

Ngā mihi,

Naima Ulu
Director

Kia Ora whānau.

We are officially back to school on Feb 7th. School van will run at usual time.

Hope you are all enjoying your holiday.

Kia Ora Whānau,

Yesterdays hakinakina. Moods and motivation were low but kei te haere tonu rātou.

It was hot up the maunga today 🔥 awesome effort from our Kura today.

Week 2 haps at the Centre

Tuesday - we visited Kaiti Playcentre. Our tauira will be enagging with these young tamariki on a weekly basis.
Wednesday - nice and normal day in our whare. Pangarau, English, Hangarau and Whakairo.
Thursday- for EOTC we went to Tolaga Bay for a fish, unfortunately we weren’t successful in catching any but our tauira were able to have a quick dip.
Friday - Titirangi Mt Everest Challenge for hakinakina. Awesome effort this afternoon.

On Friday, we said farewell to one of our tauira, Maranga. He will be transitioning back to his mainstream school Te Karaka Area School. Maranga travelled from Matawai daily to attend the Centre. He got along well with his peers, participated well and he was respectful to everyone here. We wish Maranga the absolute best for the remainder of his school years. Kia kaha, Maranga!
