He Maumaharatanga In Remembrance of Mike Duncan

The Board, staff, and tamariki of our kura wish to extend our heartfelt condolences to the whānau of Councillor Mike Duncan following his sudden passing.

Mike has been a pillar of support for our school over many years, celebrating our students’ achievements at Prizegivings and supporting them on the beach during our Triathlons. As a proud grandfather of children at our kura, his warmth and dedication were felt by so many.

He will be remembered as a truly kind, gentle man who always put his community first and was always ready to listen or help.

Kua hinga te tōtara i te wao nui a Tāne. (A great tōtara has fallen). ❤️

Kua hinga te tōtara i Te Waonui-a-Tāne.
A tōtara tree has fallen in Tāne’s great forest.

It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Nathan Rei, a master of his mahi and a man of generosity and humility, who has left an everlasting imprint on our hapori.

We send all our aroha, whakaaro, and prayers to Matua Nathan’s nieces, nephews, mokopuna, the whānau of our kura, his wider whānau, me te whānau katoa o Ngāti Toa Rangatira.

Matua Nathan’s aroha, pūkenga, kōrero, and legacy are forever woven and carved into the heart of our kura.

Moe mai rā e te rangatira. 🤍🤍🕊️

A fantastic day at Tough Tamariki at Camp Wainui, where a heap of KURA kids were their amazing selves for the day and ticked off a bucket-list item by completing the course.

A big thanks to all the kaiako who made it happen. We were also awarded the “Most Colourful School” award — aka the best school!

A special thanks to Nancy for collecting the award on stage on behalf of the kura.

Pai Rākau Pai Hua!
