What an honour and a privalege for our kura to be welcomed onto Te Whatu Manawa Māoritanga o Rehua -Rehua Marae today. It was made all the more special for me personally to have my neice Jody Hohaia O'Sullivan being the one welcoming us as part of the pōwhiri. We are so grateful to all involved to make this happen including kaumatua Karlos Bennett and Bill Bush making themselves available to not only welcome us but share history and waiata with us. One of the other highlights of the day was having Lance take on the roll of kaikorero on the day. What a special moment for one of our own to stand proud and speak so well on behalf of us all. Special thanks also to Matua Norm and Whaea Bonnie Matua & Tamahine Kapahaka for supporting us as always and also Rochelle here at school for her organisation and guidance. Last but definitely not least the staff, tamariki and Whānau with us for the day Kia ora. We can’t make these things happen without an incredible support network.
