Te Pītau Whakarei Kapahaka Fundraising

Our Vision is Whaia te aratika - follow the right path, and is

represented by our target graphic centred by the kauri tree.

We recognise that tamariki come in to our school from many

different schools, whanau, cultures: "We come as many”. At

NIS we aim to equip them with skills and values. These are

autonomy, inquiring, resilient and skilled learners. These

skills sit alongside the values of Whanaungatanga

(relationships), Rangitiratanga (leadership), Manaakitanga

( w e l c om i n g a n d s u p p o r t i v e ) a n d Ka i t i a k i t a n g a

(guardianship). We capture this as “We grow as we

journey”. Finally “Whaia te aratika”. We aim to equip

students to be positive, contributing and worthy citizens.

The Intermediate years are critical in terms of a child’s

development and foundation for future years and we look

forward to working with whanau and our new learners

The funds will help our tamariki & support crew with the costs of travel, accommodation, food & uniforms during our week stay in Hamilton
