Our Whakataukī / School Song

Whakataukī / School Song

Our school whakatauki / song is based on a traditional proverb that expresses the importance of nurturing our te rito (young learners) who are the heart of the harakeke (flax bush). 

With the support of the surrounding leaves (teachers, whānau, and community) our tamariki grow as strong, confident learners, standing tall and flourishing like the harakeke.

Hutia te rito

Hutia te rito o te Harakeke

Kei hea te komako e kō

Kī mai ki ahau

He aha te mea nui o te Ao

He aha te mea nui o te Ao

Maku e ki atu

He tangata ...

He tangata ...

He tangata ...


Nurture, Learn, Succeed – Together, Te Rito o te Harakeke
