Trustee’s Statement

In addition to meeting the requirements of the National Curriculum Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Te Orini ki Ngati Awa (Te Orini) provides a supportive environment to promote a can do attitude. With Te Reo Maori being the language of the Kura and a priority given to cultural activities students continue to develop into fluent speakers with a    reinforced positive self image of themselves.  It is seen as crucial that students have a good self image of themselves as this inspires the self belief and self confidence for them to set attainable goals during their time at kura and for later in life. I once read that a “good positive attitude is everything” I have since seen nothing to dispute that statement.
