Pasifika o Te Puna Wai o Waipapa
Kia orana! Ni sa bula! Mālō e lelei! Talofa lava! Faka’alofa lahi atu! Fakatalofa atu! Gude! Noa’ia! Kia ora koutou! Warm Pacific greetings!
Te Puna Wai o Waipapa welcomes students and aiga who whakapapa to the Pacific, and recognise the special relationship that Aotearoa has with Pacific Peoples. We are excited to see a growing Pasifika community within the College, and encourage students and aiga to connect in with our team and activities that are happening:
- Aiga vertical tutor group, with Pasifika students of all year levels together
- Regular lunchtime meet-ups for ākonga, involvement in regional events, and celebration of Pacific languages, cultures and identities
- Each term a fono with aiga and community members
- Pasifika liaison officer to sustain connections between aiga and school.
