Kia ora koutou katoa

In celebration of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, we joined with hundreds of schools around the country at 12pm Monday 12th September and sang a waiata (song). We also celebrated today with a cultural mufti day. Please see below for photos.

Farewell Mrs. Wyatt

Ka kite anō au i a koutou SAMS whānau.

It is with great sadness that my time here at SAMS has come to an end.

I have been a part of this whānau for 3 years now and have truly loved every moment.

My greatest joy and fulfillment has always come from connecting with our rangatahi and my greatest realisation while working here has been a passion for educating our youth.

Friday 25th September will be my last day here at SAMS. My family and I will be continuing our journey to the Far North. I will be back without a doubt and look forward to seeing you all soon when it is safe to give hugs again.

Aroha nui,

Mrs. Donna Wyatt
