Marriene Langton Principal/Tumuaki
Tēnā koutou e te whanau. This is my 16th year as tumuaki of our lovely kura. I am one-eyed when it comes to providing the very best education for all of our tamariki, strong connections to whanau and applying attachment theory so every child has a champion adult at our school who believes in them unconditionally. I just can’t see past it. Our kaiako and kaiawhina go the extra 50 miles to give our children the best chances to succeed. My family is number one. After 20 years of camping holidays in Kaiteriteri, Graham and I are recidivist “glampers “ and ready for new adventures in our latest caravan. It’s brilliant when our family joins us too.

Edutech Conference

The middle leadership team attended the Edutech Conference at the end of May. It was so good to be together and to be able to talk and plan with out interrruption as well as to listen to some world class speakers.
It gave us a lot to think about  for the future improvement of our school but also many reasons to celebrate how far we have come and what we have put in place for our children.
We do have a lovely school and I love talking about what we do here and the lovely staff. I also boast about our children and families and how we work together for the sake of the children. It is hard work but when you see a child succeeding it is all worth while.
Thanks very much Board of Trustees for supporting us with professional development. It does make a difference as we are challenged to think, and rethink.
