The school motto 'Living is Striving' helped create the theme for the current Whenuapai School logo. Our school house groups are also based on the tiles in the logo. This logo came into use in 2003.
​
The Book is the knowledge tile, which represents learning, teaching and information.
The Heron represents flight and 'striving'.
The Mangrove represents 'living'. It symbolizes our children's environment and growth.
The Hands are the sociability tile. They represent friendship, social development and coming together.

EVERY CHILD  - EVERY DAY - EVERY WAY
Tamariki i nga ra katoa i nga ara katoa
We believe in celebrating student achievement and acknowledging the progress and effort of our students.  We recognise each student as an individual and take responsibility for their personal and all round academic development throughout their time at our school.
LEARNING TO LEARN- LEARNING TO LIVE
Preparing our students to be lifelong learners and to be confident and respectful 21st century citizens is our priority.

Respect Responsibility Attitude Pride , Restorative Practice , and the behaviour layers.

At Hobsonville School we put into action a belief that respectful relationships are at the heart of the educational experience.  We promote positive behaviour through choice, reflection and elicited consequences and develop responsible , reflective pupils who are proud of their own achievements as well as the achievements of others.

The essence of Restorative Practice is simple- human beings are happier, more productive, and more likely to make positive changes in behaviour when those in positions of authority do things WITH them, rather than TO them or FOR them.
Adapted from Wachtel 2004

The Restorative Process is a way of building, maintaining and respecting relationships.
Reflect …………….. Repair……………….Reconnect

It has to do with relationships and building connections

It is fair

It is respectful to the victim and the wrongdoer

It teaches humility and empathy

It elicits consequences from the wrongdoer

It develops a sense of social responsibility
