Term 1 also sees a focus of the “reset,” a complete review of what
works well at Haeata and what needs revision and review. We know
that positive relationships work well, we know that absenteeism and
disengagement doesn’t. We know that curriculum underpinned by our
cultural narrative and based on local knowledge and content works well.
We know that curriculum underpinned by social media and fake news
content doesn’t. The reset has challenged us to unpick our assumptions
about how ākonga learn and focus on curriculum delivery that first and
foremost demands accountability and commitment from all participants.
A Haeata leader will take the stage in the 21st century when they leave
this kura as captains of industry, professionals, business people, politicians,
entrepreneurs, parents and providers. By focussing on personal
success, on being the best versions of ourselves, on ensuring we have the
skills and expertise required to lead we will set ourselves apart. Haeata
acknowledges that future leaders in the 21st Century require more
than an NCEA qualification, they require a keen sense of self belief, they
require cultural competencies that allow them to walk in multiple worlds
with confidence, but most importantly they must understand the importance
of hautūtanga/leadership as service.
It is in the service of others that true leadership is observed.
Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui.

watch and Ashburton College girls excelled in their execution. A comic shout was heard
“Bring back the girls!”, after their performance! Here we saw all that is authentically good in
our young people today. The fabulousness of skill and music, fun and talent was showcased by
schools from all over Canterbury, and Malborough.
It was not a competition in essence, but it was evident that each school was reaching new
heights of excellence and entertainment, as Shirley Boys High so ably showed with their
stunning, exuberant and highly skilled performance. They roared on stage, lifting the roof with
their routine. It was a joy to be there to witness such unity and super fast hand actions, and
choreography. The screams, shouts and applause from the audience echoed the tremendous
appreciation we all felt for their hard work and skill. But it was not only them, but
every single school that took that stage were outstanding. Every student who confidently
stood up showed mana and pride. The colour of the costumes, the excellence of the routines
and the sheer joy these youth exhibited, all point to a deep community effort that is raising
our strong and bold Pasifika tamaiti.

Ko Haeata Tatou!
The Haeata Community Campus Senior Boys team had a preseason game on Saturday
in preparation for the upcoming season. This was the first hit out for the team as they
have not played rugby together for the school. The game was held at Haeata Community
Campus and the boys did well. We are really proud of the progress of our rugby union
teams and we want to build on the success of last year.
