Ngā mihi mahana ki a tātou katoa i tēnei wahanga o te tau.
E maumahara ana ki te tini o rātou kua mene atu ki te pō, ā, kei te ngaro i tēnei wa o te Kirihimete. E kore koutou e warewaretia. Takoto mai ra, haere, haere, okioki atu.

Ki a tātou te hunga ora, kia mau tonu ki tenei mea te aroha, tātou ki a tatou.

My warmest greetings to us all as 2016 draws to a close.
We remember our loved ones who are no longer with us to share this special time, knowing they will never be forgotten.

Whānau from Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Rangiawhia are devastated at the Minister of Education Hekia Parata's decision to close the school this week.

The long-awaited decision on the future of this school has been keenly anticipated, but unfortunately it's not the preferred outcome.

Whānau spokesperson Joe Petera says, “Whānau are saddened at today's announcement because this is the senior total immersion school in our district. Irrespective, we vow to keep our kura open and that the challenge for us.”
