Cycle Ambassadors

Hi - we are the Cycle Ambassadors. Janet from Auckland Transport came to May Road School. She taught the team how to use the bikes correctly and how to use them safely. We will be able to teach others to use the bikes in a proper way. We think bikes support a healthy and sustainable world. Every class has a turn each week. It is cool to have our own track in our school. 

The Cycle Ambassador Bike Team are in the process of being trained. They are Benhur, Samuel, Noara, Ambarish, Georgia, Peyton. Tīma Rā: Abraham, Unaloto, Pavaran, Timothy. 


Enviro-Team

Our Enviro team has been really busy planting and caring for our gardens. We are proud to have a thriving vegetable garden which is used to promote healthy eating habits throughout the school. Our amazing volunteer Sarah shares her knowledge of what to plant and how to plant. Miss Tavake and Ms Noakes work with the team on Mondays at lunchtime - weather permitting. If you would like to help out in our gardens please come and see us.

Mana Whenua 

We have a rōpū of children who are inquiring into the local history of our maunga - Pukewīwī. They have had the benefit of working with Hans Dieter-Bader who is an archaeologist and expert in the history of how people lived and utilised the natural resources of Tāmaki Makau-rau. The rōpū share their learning about the history of Pukewīwī and mana whenua, with others in the school.  


Celebrate cultural diversity and the special place of Māori

Understand the local history and environment - past, present, future


Kapa Haka 

We have a wonderful group of children who meet every Thursday with Miss Koonwaiyou and Ms Noakes. 

All children are welcome to join, from Year 2. We are always looking for whānau to tautoko our weekly practices - just let us know.
