Check out this mural designed by one of our Year 8’s Iona Den-McKay and painted by Iona and her friends Gretta Keith, Lydia Walthew, Adelle Robinson and Kylah Neilson.
In Iona’s words the mural represents:
The Poutama represents the pursuit of knowledge, progression and growth.
The school logos are circled by the Matawhero-shark which protects our school and the land.
The sharks are red because they represent the chief’s (in the school narrative) red dreadlocks. The blue represents the sea surrounding Puketapu and Bell Block.
The colours on the poutama and logo are the school colours.
