Whanau Group

Kia ora Parents/Caregivers,
On behalf of the Hutt Central Whānau group, we warmly welcome your whānau to our school.

We are a group of Parents/Caregivers who meet about once a term to discuss and plan activities with a focus on tikanga Māori that bring our school community together.  
We are always pleased to have more of our school whānau come to our hui and welcome people from all cultures to share and bring new ideas or just support the group’s activities - we all have something to offer.

Our meetings are advertised in the school newsletters.  If you would like to find out more about the Whānau group, or better still - join us, our Whānau group would love to hear from you!

“Nāku te rourou, nāu to rourou, ka ora ai te iwi”
With your food basket and my food basket, our whānau will thrive!
Looking forward to meeting you,
Ngā mihi

Nei Matou
Na Ben Ngaia                   
Kia u ki te pai 
Nei matou ko Pukeariki
Te kura taitamariki
Kia kaha ra tatou
Kia u ki te pai
Whaia te iti kahurangi
Pae tawhiti, pae tata e
Kia mau, kia tina e
Kia u ki te pai 
Te iwi kia kotahi ai
Ki te tika, ki te pono
Me te aroha
Ki te tika, ki te pono
Me te aroha e
Ki te tika, ki te pono
Me te aroha e

Translation
Imbue respect and goodwill
Here we are, Hutt Central School
The school of our children
Stand strong together
Imbue respect and goodwill
Pursue that which is precious
Whether it is distant horizons,
Or horizons already attained
May they give you strength of character
Imbue respect and goodwill
May the community come together in unity
With righteousness, faith 
And compassion for one another
With righteousness, faith
And compassion for one another
