Te Kura Whakapumau i Te Reo Tuturu ki Waitaha

"Ekea te Puhitaioreore"

But wait there's more ...

Second Submission

Once again, our whanau voted NO to moving and after many, many more hui our Second Submission was created. The evening before we formally handed it to MOE we met with Te Kura Kaupapa Maori o Te Whanau Tahi and exchanged submissions in an act of good faith and to show unity in supporting the stance of each kura to remain on each site. In May this year we received the news that both kura could remain on our current sites.

On Thursday 10th October, 2013 we received notification that the Minister will announce her decisions for Secondary Education in Christchurch on Wednesday 16th October ...

First Proposal

* When kura reopened it had gone from 147 students to 23. 2011 was a tough year for Christchurch that saw many whanau (including staff) leave for good. Some moved to schools closer to their homes. Many were kept at home to ensure whanau knew where they were at all times. However in September 2012, just when it seemed that some normality was resuming in Christchurch, our Tumuaki and Board Chairperson were advised to attend a hui at the Lincoln Events centre.

To merge the only two Kura Kaupapa Maori Aho Matua in Christchurch to make just one Kura on a site yet to be determine.

Second Proposal

First Submission

AND THEN we received a second proposal. The two kura could remain separate but ONE KURA MUST MOVE TO ANOTHER SITE and we, the two kura whanau, must decide which one will move.

Our kura whanau said NO to the merge so after many, many, hui we traveled, as a kura whanau, to Christchurch MOE office to handover our formal written response to the Ministers Proposal. On February 18th, 2013, our whanau was informed that we were not going to be forced to merge however...

Our E.R.O Evaluation Question is...

How well do students manifest physical and spiritual well-being through harmonious alignment of body, mind and spirit?

ERO 2010

Ruaumoko

What has happened since our last ERO visit? What is our story?

On the 4th of September, 2010, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch. Our Kura Tuatahi were supposed to compete at the Regional Kapahaka Competitions on this day and were pumped and ready! Some of our students were more concerned about getting their kura uniforms than the liquefaction that had filled their homes!

What did we do?

* We went into survival mode.

* We checked on all our whanau

* Provided help where we could

* Closed our kura until inspections

deemed it okay to re-enter.

* Celebrated that there was no loss

of life and kura was undamaged.

* Created a plan in case we should

have another one.

* And the whanau returned to kura (albeit scared and worried)

"He toka tu moana"

It is without doubt that we should take the time to mihi to our kura whanau. The strength, courage and resilience shown during the past three years is indeed reflected amongst our tamariki, our kura, our whanau and our wider community. Nei ra te owha atu ki a koutou katoa!

And then ...

At 12.51pm on the 22nd February, 2011 (lunchtime at kura) a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch City.

So we ...

* Checked that we were all accounted for and waited until all our tamariki were picked up by whanau - it took hours ... roads were flooded, no-one knew just how bad the situation was. Every parent in Christchurch was desperate to get to their tamariki and loved ones.

But wait there's more...

Add closures due to snow, ill health, EQC and NOVOPAY to the mix...

Proposals

Changes in Staff and Whanau have been a reality. Stress throughout Christchurch has increased.

We have received 2 proposals to date.
