Kia ora koutou, Nau mai haere mai ki tō tātou kura. On this page, you can find out what is happening in and around our school, particularly with our Māori whānau and community. There are various kaupapa Māori (initiatives and events) happening throughout the year that celebrate and support Māori language, culture, and achievement, and we hope to share them with you on this page. If you would like to be involved with our whānau rōpu we would love to have you. You can get in touch with Joelle Nareki at joelle.nareki@aidanfield.school.nz to be added to more regular communications around this group
Colossians 3:16-17 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and advise one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns and songs from the spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Ngāti Moki Marae at Te Taumutu
Our school lies in the takiwā (geographic boundaries) of Te Taumutu Rūnanga, which is one of the 18 Papatipu Rūnanga of Ngāi Tahu. Aidanfield Christian School is proud to be affiliated with Te Pā o Moki (Ngāti Moki Marae) as the central marae of this takiwā. Each year, our Year 4 students visit the marae and for many, this is their first experience of being welcomed to and hosted on a marae. We are always grateful for the beautiful manaakitanga that we are shown when we visit. We look moving into the future and seeing where this partnership leads.
