Last night MRI participated in the TOI Wearable Arts competition for schools in New Zealand. This is a vibrant showcase of young talent, bringing design ideas to life and showcasing them in the Aotea Centre! We are excited that two MRI designs, selected based on design submissions, were accepted into this amazing showcase of Auckland/ New Zealand young talent.
Our MRI students had developed their designs as part of one of our electives of ‘fashion design'. They then had three weeks to bring their ideas to life. This included pattern making, sewing, hand sewing, crocheting, structural creating as part of the process.
We are so proud of the group of designers, the models and our wonderful visual art teacher Ms Goforth. It was an exciting opportunity, experience and event. Congratulations to all of those involved. Our MRI team represented us strongly and paved the way to inspire our future designers... offical photos to come ...

🏉🥉🥈 Central Zones Rugby 🥈🥉🏉

Last Wednesday, MRI sent three teams to compete at CZ’s rugby: our Open Boys, our Open Girls, and our U60kg boys.

🥉 Our U60s had a slow start to the day, going down in their first game before drawing their next one. They finished with two wins on the trot to come third overall, while rueing missed opportunities from earlier.

🥈 Our Open Girls also lost their first game, before proceeding to win their remaining games and going on to place first equal in points, but second overall on countback. The girls showed massive growth throughout the day and have pleasingly qualified for Auckland Champs in week 10.

🥈 Our Open Boys had a superb day, going undefeated in pool play and making it all the way to the finals before going down in a tight match to place second overall. A fantastic result was achieved given the competitiveness of the competition.

Overall, it was a very impressive day by MRI, with top three placings in all divisions entered, and small margins the only factor in not achieving better results. A massive thank you to Mr Du Plessis, Mr Uili, Cole Hughes, as well as Miss Mayhew and Miss Meredith (our student teachers) for their work with the squads.

🌺 Samoan Language Week Celebration 🌺
Today we came together for a wonderful assembly to celebrate Samoan Language Week and honour the rich culture, language, and traditions of Samoa.
A big thank you to Vaoita and Payton for confidently hosting the assembly. Mr Uili and Reiley shared their knowledge as they explained the significance of the dance item, helping us all gain a deeper understanding of Samoan culture.
Our Pasifika Young Leader girls performed a beautiful siva, showcasing grace, pride, and cultural heritage. Faira and Eva also taught us some relative phrases in both English and Samoan, giving everyone an opportunity to learn and participate.
Thank you to all our students and staff who celebrated by wearing cultural dress and helping make the day so special. It was wonderful to see our school community embracing and celebrating diversity together.
🇼🇸 Fa'afetai lava to everyone who contributed to this memorable celebration!

🥈🏆⚽️ Year 8 Girls' CZ Football ⚽️🏆🥈

Going into today's tournament, the MRI girls walked in as favourites and had everyone's eyes on them. The pressure was immense, and they 100% delivered.

After an early loss against a superb DIO team, the girls reset, winning the next three games, including a must-win game against ANI, to advance to the semis. Against a strong Remuera side, MRI prevailed 1-0 to advance to the finals to play DIO again. In a torrid match, the teams couldn't be separated at full time, and the match went to penalties, where ultimately MRI went down, losing 3-2, and coming second overall. To lose in the final via penalties after seven matches is a cruel way to go down, but the girls should be immensely proud of what they have achieved. They 100% backed up their result from last year, proving it was no fluke, and their reputation was fully justified.

A massive thank you to Miss Golding for all her work with our football and futsal teams, particularly with our Year 8 girls' squad, which has won back-to-back CZ Futsal titles, placed second in the Year 7 girls' Football Inter-zones last year, and then placed second today at CZs by the barest of margins. What an awesome performance by Miss Golding and this group of girls!
