Rā o Ngā Hōia - 25 April 2015 


On Friday 24th April the whole school was involved in an ANZAC commemoration service.  The Dedication was read by Mr Derbidge with Koro Akuhata leading the prayers and service for this somber but significant anniversary - ANZAC Centenary - 100 years since this nation’s involvement in the First World War. A big mihi to Matua Herewini who was the Master of Ceremonies and to Whāea Alice for organising such a beautiful occasion and for her direction on the day.  He toka tū moana, arā he toa rongonui.

We have been learning what life is like for students in Rarotonga.  During this week, we will be looking at different activities, art and food from the Cook Islands.  Why don't you join us this Friday 8th May for a morning of celebrating Cook Islands art, kai and festivities.  Maybe you know how to play the 'pate', or would like to make 'banana poke'.  Come in and share your wonderful talents!  Let myself or Whāea Jay know if you would like to be part of this kaupapa.
