E huri te aro ki te tai o te rāwhiti, ko te ūranga o te rā. He āo, he āo, he āo hou.
Turn your attention to the east, to the sun rise. A day, a day, a new day has dawned.
We respect the unique position of Māori as tangata whenua (the indigenous people) of New Zealand and te reo Māori (Māori language) as an official New Zealand language.
We acknowledge Ngāi Tūahuriri as the mana whenua of our area.
This site aims to explain and celebrate how we incorporate and acknowledge te ao Māori at Rāwhiti School
“The curriculum acknowledges the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi, and the bi-cultural foundations of Aotearoa New Zealand.
All students have the opportunity to acquire knowledge of te reo Māori me ōna tikanga.”
The New Zealand Curriculum, p. 9
Toitū te mauri, toitū te mana, toitū whenua, toitū tangata
Enduring mauri, enduring mana, enduring lands, enduring people
