Takapuna Grammar

2021 Kāhui Ako (CoL) Conference

The annual Devonport-Takapuna Kāhui Ako | Community of Learning Conference is happening here in Te Poho Hall on Friday 4 June. The theme of this year’s conference is 'Whakarongo mai mātou | We are listening'.

Our conference provides an excellent opportunity for local teachers to network with others within the Kāhui Ako | Community of Learning (COL), and to learn and share what they’re doing to create great student outcomes.

We look forward to seeing all the local Peninsula Teachers there!

We Will Remember Them...

On Sunday 25th April we hosted our annual Anzac Day Dusk Service in the Ex-Pupils Library. It was great to see some familiar faces from the past and so many proud medals on display. Thank you to everyone who attended and those behind the scenes that helped contribute to mark this important occasion on the TGS calendar.
