School Karakia

Kia inoi tātou - Let us pray...

Written by Patrick Gemmell for Pt England School

E te kaihanga ō ngā hau o ngā rangi mai tawhiti

E rere iho nei ki te moana

Kawea nei i o mātou whakaaro

Hei whetū mārama

Mo ngā mahi kei te whai mai.

Kōkiri tōku hāere

I te ao e, i te ao e

Āmene

To the creator of the winds which ascend from afar

towards the sea,

Carry with you our good thoughts & dreams

Imprint them among the heavens.

For the tasks ahead

Strengthen my journey

Each day, each day

Amen
