A little bit about Harakeke

This year each classroom has been given a name of a native plant. Our's is Harakeke - which stands for Flax. This was chosen for our classroom as the flowers of the flax are red, which is reflected in our classroom colours.

The Junior classrooms have been assigned plants that are lower to the ground, the middle school are larger plants, and the senior school larger again.

We are hoping that we will move away from the numbering system into the plant system...and that plant will always stay with that room, no matter what class and age group are in it.
WE HOPE YOU EMBRACE THIS SYSTEM!!
