Jay Hawaikirangi: former head boy & Te Kauhua rangatahi
Our teacher and student development program is based on research conducted by the University of Otago and the Ministry of Education, named the Te Kauhua Programme. Te Kauhua (meaning the supports on a waka and used as a metaphor for supporting one another on the same journey) is about reframing the mainstream school experience for Māori students. The hypothesis underpinning the programme is that Māori student outcomes will improve when they see themselves reflected in the curriculum, and when their teachers are trained to be reflective about their practice and to be agents of change for Māori students.
Ko te pae tawhiti, whāia kia tata
Ko te pae tata, whakamaua kia tina
Seek out distant horizons,
and cherish those you attain
Positive student-teacher relationships are a pre-requisite to student engagement in schools, so Hornby High School provides one-on-one mentoring opportunities for Māori students. Hornby High staff also undertake regular professional development based on important Māori concepts and principles. Attending to these principles is essential if Māori students are to feel truly valued and therefore become meaningfully engaged in classroom learning activities.
-
Ako – effective and reciprocal teaching and learning relationships where everyone is a learner and a teacher
-
Manaakitanga – the care for students as culturally located people above all else
-
Mana motuhake – the care by teachers for the academic success and performance of their student
-
Whakawhanaungatanga – the nurturing of mutually respectful and collaborative relationships between all parties around student learning

Rangatahi Achievement Awards
This is a bi-annual event that is new to Hornby High this year, with students being awarded for their efforts throughout the year in each subject. Staff completed nomination forms for Academic Progress (awarded for students who advance considerably within any subject) and Academic Attainment (awarded for students who gain fantastic results in any area, whether that be NCEA grades for Seniors, or regulated classroom tests for Juniors).
