Our shared purpose is to sustain and strengthen culturally responsive practices across our schools within the Matamata community. We are committed to working collaboratively to support rangatahi on their educational journey from ECE through to college, ensuring seamless transitions and sustained success.

As a connected community, we prioritise the wellbeing of our ākonga, fostering a collective approach to care and responsibility. We strive to develop and facilitate opportunities for all our local teachers to collaborate, empowering them through professional learning with a common purpose—achieving positive outcomes for our students.

Our Kāhui Ako aims to strengthen, collaborate, empower and foster meaningful connections between our schools, creating a united approach to education that uplifts every learner. Through shared leadership, authentic partnerships, and a commitment to equity, we work together to ensure all ākonga thrive.
