Property Update - April 2026
Building update for space by the Douglas Street gates – community support invited.
Many of our whānau, especially those connected with Mua i Malae and Te Whānau Whāriki, will be aware of the proposed building for the fenced grass area by the middle court. This project was intended to help meet the needs of our growing school community, including our Māori and Samoan pathways, and to provide fit-for-purpose learning spaces for our tamariki.Following consultation and early design work, including work with Design Tribe and Lama Tone, the next stage of funding has not proceeded. The Board has continued to engage with the Ministry of Education over an extended period and is seeking a clear decision and pathway for the project. The Board remains committed to advocating for this development. The project is important to the school because it would support the removal of temporary rooms from the field, help bring the school together on site, improve equity in learning spaces, and support future growth across all of our pathways. Whānau who wish to support this kaupapa are welcome to send correspondence to the Minister of Education and relevant Ministry of Education staff, asking that the project be reconsidered or progressed.
