Tō Tātou Ara Our Way


PB4L (Positive Behaviour For Learning) is a Ministry of Education based contract that our school has been working with since 2017. 

To build on our school culture using our 4 values Respect-Whakaute,  Resilience-Manawaroa, Excellence-Rawe, and Integrity- Ngākau Tapatahi we have developed our School wide behaviour expectations matrix.  This has had input from both staff and students.  The matrix has a number of indicators for each value, what we see each of these values looking and sounding like for our students.  We will teach, model and acknowledge these positive behaviours at our school and throughout our school community to make Our Way - Tō Tātou Ara, working together, learning together.  In sharing these with our school family community we encourage you to use them at home and seek to build strong home-school partnerships with shared language and shared expectations.

Our grateful thanks to Korrin Laker for the character designs and to Daryl Skilling and his company for our lovely school signage!
