During Road Safety Week we acknowledged our wonderful teachers

Road Safety Week

During Road Safety Week, we acknowledged our wonderful teachers who go above and beyond to keep our rangatahi safe.  Each morning and afternoon, they supervise at the bus stops and school entrances, ensuring students arrive and leave safely. We are proud to recognise them as our true Road Safety Heroes. Our ESOL adult students had Road Safety Quiz Competition, and they learned new interesting facts about the Road Safe System approach in Aotearoa. 

Sign Language Week 

As we celebrate 20 years since New Zealand Sign Language became an official language, we were excited to begin our Level 2 courses. This term, we are offering Level 2A, with Level 2B to follow next term. It’s a fantastic opportunity to continue learning and celebrating this important part of New Zealand’s culture and communication. 

Mother's Day 

On Wednesday evening, the adult students who joined the cupcake decorating workshop created beautiful cupcake flowers to gift to their mums, aunties, and grandmothers for the upcoming Mother’s Day. 

Whether you’re a mum by birth, by choice, or by heart — your care changes lives. Wishing all mothers a Sunday filled with love, relaxation, and joy!
