The mighty Tōtara tree stands tall and proud. It protects those smaller than itself. In ancient times it was used to build waka that carried hundreds of warriors and build whare to protect people from the earths elements. As the team gifted with the name tōtara, we take on much of it’s meaning. We protect those who are younger than us and we support others by encouraging them, and being active role models in our kura. We are the leaders of KNS.

Wainui Camp 2018
Well camp was a challenge for both our hubs. The rain that cyclone Gita gave us didn't stop Room 18/19 getting out and completing their activities nor did it stop Room 20/21/22 from getting to camp. It was a bit wet, but everyone had a blast! We are super thankful to all the parents who offered their time to help out on camp, we couldn't have done it without you!
