Principals                              Puriri School is a small rural school
                                        with a strong connection to its awa
                                          and its Puriri tree. The kura has
                                        created Te Kura o Awa to connect

                                     Te Kura o Awa is the foundation for the
                                       teaching of our local curriculum. All
                                        aspects of the NZ Curriculum have
                                             been successfully linked to

Māori Dimensions and Cultural Diversity   Appreciation of Te Reo Maori is
                                          modelled to support the
                                          understanding and importance of
                                          the culture of Tangata Whenua and
                                          is encompassed in everyday life at
                                          Puriri School through the use of
                                          kōrero, waiata, karakia and
                                          pakiwaitara. Tikana is deeply
                                          embeded in the social context of
                                          the kura.
Special Character / Māori Medium          All students at Puriri School take part
                                          in daily waiata, karakia and
                                          development of their capabilities as
                                          speakers of Te Reo.
                                          The use of Te Reo is normalised so it is
                                          heard, seen and used daily in the
                                          whānau rooms. The integration of the
                                          language is easily equated to three or
                                          more hours of Te Reo instruction a
                                          week. Teachers and students can
                                          move between both English and Te
                                          Reo within the whānau room setting.
                                          Teachers are committed to further
                                          professional development in this area.
                                          Te Kura o Puriri is a Level 4b Te Reo
                                          kura and is currently working with the

                                        whanau rooms. These whanau rooms

                                        own pace and work alongside students
                                        of similar ages and levels thus ensuring
                                        that all students are able to achieve
                                        success in their learning. The ability for
                                        students to work individually, with age
                                        group peers and across the levels
                                        means that irrespective of their age
                                        and ability there is always a group and
                                        teacher that fits their learning needs.

Student Engagement                     Students at Puriri School are
                                       engaged in their learning through
                                       the provision of meaningful
                                       contexts for learning. These
                                       contexts enable them to develop
                                       and apply their knowledge to
                                       everyday situations.

Excellent Outcomes for Students        Puriri School uses the Progression
                                       and Consistency Tool to measure,
                                       track and plan for learning that
                                       ensures there are equitable
                                       outcomes for students.

                                       consistent provision of excellent
                                       outcomes for all.
