Talofa lava,

I’m Mr Isaako, and I’m looking forward to a great year of learning with our students and whānau.

I’m passionate about creating a positive, supportive classroom where students are encouraged to grow, be curious, and do their best.

Let’s work together to make this year a successful and memorable one.

LOOKING BACK AT Week 1

We’ve had a great first week back at school! Students have settled in well, built routines, and shown a positive attitude toward learning. Looking forward to an exciting term ahead.

This week, Room 1 headed out for an exciting sailing experience! Students showed incredible teamwork, resilience, and courage as they learned how to rig the boats, steer, and work with the wind.

There were moments of challenge, but everyone demonstrated Kotahitanga (working together) and Manaakitanga (supporting others) on the water.

We are so proud of the way our students stepped outside their comfort zones and embraced the learning experience. What a day of Discovery!
