“We aim to instil, within our students, the knowledge of Respect, Active Involvement, and the pursuit of Excellence in a safe and flexible environment”
Ko te pae tawhiti Whāia kia tata, Ko te pae tata Whakamaua kia tina Seek out the distant horizons, While cherishing Those achievements at hand.
The learner support model combines Mason Durie's original Whare Tapa Whā model, and Moeau's addition of 'Taha whenua', to become the Whare Tapa Rima. This model supports understandings of human well-being by representing a whare/home. A whare has five dimensions when viewed from the front, the foundation, two walls and the two pitched sides of the roof. At Taraua College we believe that each of the 5 dimensions are linked, and our young people need support in all areas to achieve to their potential. We look at each of the dimensions as the following:
Cultural belonging & Connection
Family & social well-being
Physical well-being
Spiritual well-being
Mental & Emotional well-being
