PŌ WHAKANUIA
Pō Whakanuia is an acknowledgement of those students who have shown outstanding commitment to Paihere Rangatiratanga (student leadership), kapa haka, and academic achievement in te reo Māori.
Pō Whakanuia also recognises students who have consistently demonstrated our core values of whai koha (courtesy), ū ki ngā kaupapa (commitment), pākiki (curiosity) and tangata māia (courage). These values are an intergral part of Te Ao Māori and are practised through tikanga.
