Our Logo
The logo design is based around the awa - Te Auaunga- which is represented by the blue swoosh at the base of the symbol. This has three koru which represent the three school values - Whanaungatanga | Belonging, Hiranga ki mua | Excellence and Rangatiratanga | Leadership. These underpin our beliefs around learning and help prepare students for their journey ahead. On both sides of the koru are two frangipani Pasifika symbols representing the welcoming nature of the school. The swoosh shape also resembles a river waka and alludes to the idea of students, of many cultures, being in the waka and moving forward together.
Above the awa are two birds representing Year 7 and 8 students. Year 7 students are slightly smaller and shown entering the school and drinking/feeding from the awa. Year 8 students are slightly larger and shown soaring over the awa - having been refreshed, revitalised and prepared as they navigate the next part of their journey. Intermediates are transitional and, like migratory birds, students find their way to our school, are here for a season equipped for the next exciting stage of their education journey.
