We had a visit from Mr. Nic and some of his year 7 and 8 students from Ilminster school in Gisborne this week. It was a great opportunity for us to practise our haka and the way we welcome visitors to our school. We talked a bit about the significance of our school's site, Kupe, Whetu kairangi and the wheke and then we made our way down to the beach. We practised our hosting, showing manaakitanga and being leaders.
We walked to the beach, exercising our appreciation of beauty and excellence, as we marvelled at the place we are so lucky to call ours. We worked in groups, fostering positive relationships, and building sand sculptures. It was a lovely way to connect.
Thanks Mr. Nic for a lovely visit and for helping us make new connections and positive relationships.
