Kia ora e te whānau,

Nau mai haere mai to our new whanau to te kura o Fitzroy.

We apologise for not having a whanau hui sooner. However,
with Puanga fast approaching we thought it would be a good time to catch up and set our intentions for te tau Māori.
This is a time to reflect on the year that has been and a time to remember those who have passed.

Welcome to new students to the kura this year and the returning whanau that were previously part of this ropu (group).

This ropu was set up last year where Māori whanau can support other whanau. We aim to have one event each term and would love to have as may whanau to meet up.

We are planning to celebrate Puanga as a ropu later in June. More details about this will be shared soon.
