Head Students

Leadership Week day 1. 

Monday 29th June 2015

Today we had the Head Girl and Head Boy from Tauranga Girls and Tauranga Boys Colleges visit our school - Ana Morris and Te Purihi Moana - they came and talked to our Year 5-8 students about their leadership experiences. 

We enjoyed listening about their childhood experiences and their leadership journeys, as well as their inspirations and passions. 

Some of the key messages were:

• Take every opportunity 
• Get involved in things you love
• Persevere through the ups and downs 
• Challenge yourself to be your best
• Present yourself well 
• Have good time management
• Have faith in yourself and others

We really enjoyed having morning tea with you guys, talking and asking questions.What a great start to our Leadership Week!

Meet Lobita

Meet Lobita

The Tauriko School Council has adopted 9 year old Lobita through World Vision. By sponsoring this child, we are helping to improve her access to better education and healthcare, secure a clean water supply and produce enough food for good nutrition all year round. 

Lobita is 9 years old, she lives in Chigodi, Maliwi with her Mum and Dad. To help out her chores include carrying water. In her spare time she enjoys handball. 

We will be having daily events each term that will support Lobita. Any creative ideas are welcome. Please email me - hannah6ngn@tauriko.school.nz
