Te Wiki o te Reo Māori

Next week marks the 50th anniversary of Te Wiki o te Reo Māori!

We have some exciting activities lined up for students and 3 challenges from a few of our Māori & Pasifika Council members! Look out for our daily emails for quizzes, videos, workshops and prizes next week!

Silver at AIMS

CONGRATULATIONS to our Netball Team and their historic Silver Medal at AIMS Games!

The team had an incredible week, with high quality playing, and amazing grit and perseverance. The team worked well together and were always there to lift each other up.

A special mention to their coach – Miss Young – for her steadfast coaching.

A Silver at the National Level! MHJC is so proud of this Netball Team!

AIMS Update

Our Basketball team is having a great tournament so far with a great win yesterday and a very close loss. They’ve also been out to support our undefeated Netball team. Both groups are enjoying their week in Tauranga so far and are having a blast – teachers too!

Partial Strikes

The following message has been emailed home to our community. Please also see details below.

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬
Between 15th September and 18th September 2025, partial strikes have been planned. On those dates, PPTA members will not teach, instruct or supervise students in certain year levels but continue to teach all other students on those days.

The school will be unable to teach the group on the date specified and so the students in the Year Levels below are asked to learn from home on that day. While they are at home they are to continue their studies with the use of our digital platforms. Confirmation of these dates will be sent closer to the date.

𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟏𝟕𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 – Year 10 students will learn from home
𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟏𝟖𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 – Year 9 students will learn from home

AIMS Update

Our AIMS athletes in Tauranga have had a great start to the week!

Netball has had an incredible first few games with all wins that have secured the teams’ spot in the A grade.

Our Cross Country runners raced on the weekend in some rather wet winter weather. They persevered though, running with huge smiles!

Dance Success!

Congratulations to Emily (7W1) who recently competed in the Evolution Dance Competition.

She performed incredibly well and placed . . .
– 3rd in Novice Any Style Solo
– 2nd in Novice Student Choreography Solo

Amazing work Emily, we look forward to continuing to see your dance success.

Student Medication

This is a friendly reminder to ensure that the school has up-to-date information regarding any medications your child may need to take during school hours.

Please check that we have a current and unexpired supply of all necessary medications on file in the school office. If you have any new or updated information to share, please contact the school’s reception at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us ensure the health and safety of all our students.
