Wēteri Celebrates Generous Gift from the Hugo Charitable Trust
Te Kura Waenga o Wēteri is celebrating the incredibly generous donation of a brand new school van from the Hugo Charitable Trust. The gift comes at the perfect time. Our previous van had reached the end of its life and was no longer safe or reliable, which placed real limits on our ability to get ākonga out into the community for sport, education outside the classroom and local learning experiences.
Our ākonga thrive when they can get out and experience the wider world. This van means more opportunities to take part in sport, support local events and participate fully in the rich learning we offer here at Wēteri. We are deeply grateful to the Hugo Charitable Trust for this incredible koha. Their generosity will make a genuine difference to our learners and our community.
The Hugo Charitable Trust supports initiatives that increase wellbeing, strengthen communities and remove barriers for tamariki. Their donation ensures that Wesley Intermediate can continue providing experiences that help ākonga belong, learn and thrive.
We are absolutely thrilled to receive this gift. It is heart-warming to see organisations investing in our rangatahi and believing in their potential.

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.
