Last week we welcomed 27 students and 7 teachers from our Sister School in Japan

This week we have been celebrating Te Wiki o te reo Māori. It is 51 years since the Māori Language Petition was presented to Parliament on 14 September 1972. The petition played a significant role beginning the revitalisation of te reo Māori by calling for the government to recognise te reo as a taonga in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Across our Technology classes this week we had a special focus on design and inspiration from Māori culture.

We looked at traditional European coat of arms and what each symbol meant. Students then dug deep into their own whakapapa and determined what makes them… them. A modern coat of arms was developed and a shield created.

To honour library week the MHS students went to the library and asked their stakeholders (the librarians) if there were any products that were either missing, or to be developed for the library.Our stakeholders gave the students options in what they could design and construct from a set of requirements. Each group decided which project they would tackle.
