Nau mai, haere mai.
Ko Rangiuru te Maunga.
Ko Kaituna te Awa.
Ko Tuhourangi me Moko ngā marae.
The history and identity of Te Matai: Te Kura-ā-Iwi ō Tapuika is grounded in the pursuit of a robust and well rounded Education as was the wish of the founding Tapuika kuia and kōeke.
This Education is now embedded in Tapuikatanga where the Tapuika identity will be articulated and reflected in the Kura environment, planning and daily programmes. Tapuika values are instilled and nurtured in each and every Tauira so that they become proud of who they are and where they come from.
Some of our recent achievements have been:
Participation in Te Arawa Kapa Haka Regionals competitions winning or being placed as Kaitātaki Kōhine and Kaitātaki Tāne, mōteatea and haka.
Winning WBOP and BOP rippa rugby and touch tournaments.
Top three placings at regional swimming events - Tau 5-8.
Haerenga ki Rarotonga.
BOP representatives in Touch Rugby, Rugby, Netball, Basketball, Golf.
Top 2 AIMS games placings in golf.
Regional representation in athletics.
80% average rate for our tamariki to be achieving at or above in literacy and numeracy each year.
100% average rate for our tamariki to be achieving at or above in Tapuikatanga.
Our tamariki are regularly called upon to lead pohiri at Moko and Tuhourangi and tautoko our paepae and ringawera to carry out duties in the front and back of the marae.
Our kura is one of the oldest in the area and was opened 1 April 1887.
