Kia ora Whānau!

I am so proud to share this incredible video created by our students in collaboration with the Ruamāhanga Restoration Trust!

Our kids are absolute superstars. Watching them speak so articulately and thoughtfully really highlights the amazing confidence and support our staff foster in them every single day.

Last Wednesday, we sent three Year 9 teams and one Year 10 team to test their problem-solving skills at the annual Matharapa competition. And they brought home some extraordinary results, including FIRST PLACE in the Year 9 division!

A massive shoutout to our top-placing teams:

Year 9
1st Place: Thomas Aubry, Billy Praat, and Thorne Dunnet
4th Place: Kaylee Huck, Rebecka Barnes, and Ryan Chen

Year 10
3rd Place: Daniel Smyth, Alex Wither, and Sam Harvey

We are so proud of every single student who steps up to represent our school and take on the challenges.

Outstanding effort, everyone!

☀️☀️ Huge news for our school community! ☀️ ☀️

We’re thrilled to share that we’ve been selected for the Solar on Schools Programme, a joint initiative with the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA)!

Nationwide, this 3-year programme is delivering:

Rooftop Solar for up to 500 schools.
Energy Management Systems for up to 150 schools.
Battery Storage for select schools to boost savings and resilience.

What this means for us:

💸 Lower Energy Bills: More budget saved for our students and classrooms.

🔋 Energy Resilience: Greater independence through our own renewable power.

🌿 A Greener Future: Directly reducing our carbon footprint.

Stay tuned as we get ready to install our brand-new solar panels! 🍃⚡️
