Puanga Celebrations

What a wonderful way to come together and celebrate Puanga as a school community.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed donations towards our Puanga celebrations. Your generosity helped create a special occasion filled with connection, reflection, and shared kai.

Puanga is a time to remember those who have passed, celebrate the present, and look forward to the future. It was fantastic to see our students, staff, and whānau embracing this kaupapa and coming together in the spirit of manaakitanga and whanaungatanga.

Ngā mihi nui to everyone who donated, supported, and helped make the day a success. Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated. 🌟
