The Designated Character of Te Whānau o Tupuranga

Aims, purposes and objectives of Te Whānau o Tupuranga

The following aims, purposes and objectives constitute the character of Te Whānau o Tupuranga:

(i) To provide a learning environment where Māori tikanga, Samoan, Cook Islands, and Tongan cultural practices, language and knowledge are the norm, and where all students actively take part in one of these cultural communities within the school.

(ii) To enable children to draw on strong Māori and Pasifika cultures, identities and languages so that they can gain the knowledge and skills necessary to do well for themselves, their communities, Aotearoa New Zealand, the Pacific region and the world.

(iii) To provide an holistic Māori-Pasifika learning environment based on the philosophy and practice of whanaungatanga – kinship and reciprocity.

(iv) To honour the Treaty of Waitangi.

(v) To provide the community of Otara with a marae based Māori bilingual option and a Pasifika bilingual option for children beyond Year 6.

(vi) To give students participation in decision-making in curriculum content and planning.

(vii) To develop classroom practice where Māori knowledge and Pasifika cultural knowledge is normal, valid and legitimate, and guides classroom interactions and learning.

(viii) To ensure that children will be secure in their knowledge about the Māori and Pasifika world to enable them to participate in the wider world.

(ix) To involve parents and wider whānau/family in the education of their children, in culturally familiar ways that are empowering.

(x) To foster high expectations for excellence in learning – culturally, socially and academically, so Māori and Pasifika children have choices for their futures.

Dated at Wellington this 27th day of August 2010.
