At Te Waka Kura o Mohua students prepare for the future by learning skills and knowledge, and developing the personal resources that are needed to live satisfying, balanced and responsible lives.
We cater for all students, whatever their needs. Part of our philosophy is to take into account the interests and abilities of each student. We devise individual program-mes to support maximum learning where necessary. Please contact us if you need any further assistance - we would love to hear from you. Ake Ake Kia Kaha. 
14 December 2024 - From the Principal, Jono Hay
Tēnā koutou katoa, Reflection on 2024 2024 is coming to an end and as we approach the end of the school year, it is time to reflect on the achievements and challenges of the year that has been. Thank you to everyone in our school community and wider community for making myself, wife Hannah and daughter Rosie feel so welcome in our first year in Mohua. It is an amazing community that we live in and we are fortunate to be surrounded by great people in an amazing environment. Thank you to the staff that have worked tirelessly throughout the year to give our students a wide range of learning opportunities inside and outside the classroom. It has been a pleasure getting to know our kind, creative, empathetic students. The main reflection that jumps out at me is how fortunate we are as a community to have such a supportive and collaborative network of schools in Mohua. There is no doubt that if students take even some of the opportunities on offer, when they leave, they are very well placed to thrive in their lives beyond school. Mihi whakatau - Welcome to year 7 2025 As we farewell a cohort of senior students at our end of year ceremony, it is also time to welcome a new cohort of students into year 7, 2025. We do this with a mihi whakatau near the end of the school year. This is an opportunity for our current students to welcome the new students and their whānau into our school community. Thank you to everyone involved in this event and to our local primary schools for handing over your year 6 students and entrusting them to us. Year 9 and 10 Camps and Activities In recent weeks, year 9 and 10 students have been out and about making the most of the summer weather. Year 9 students went on a three day camp kayaking, caving, rock climbing and playing sports on the beach in Paturau. Year 10 students have been sea kayaking, tramping, caving or exploring some of the local art installations. Thank you to the staff that have organised and run these trips and to the parents that have helped and supported. I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday break and look forward to reconnecting in the new year. Meri Kirihimete me te Hape Nū Ia. Ake ake kia kaha Jono Hay |
