TAHS is driven by the overarching vision of providing a positive platform for change, enabling each one of its taiohi to take their ‘right path’.
To create a positive platform for change that is globally recognised, and positively supports and encourages one person, one family, one community at a time to find their path and journey to success.
There are three overarching goals which drive the TAHS Marautanga (curriculum):
1. To meet the unique cultural, academic, physical, social and emotional needs of Māori/Pacific youth
2. To collaborate with iwi, hapū, industry partners, schools and tertiary institutions
3. To provide innovative learning experiences for foundational education and vocational pathways with a primary focus on infrastructure works and employment opportunities.
Ko te whakapono,
ko te tumanako me te aroha –
Ui mai koe ki ahau he aha te mea nui o te ao,
Māku e ki atu, he tangata, he tangata, he tangata!
Faith, hope and love –
Ask me. ‘What is the greatest thing in the world?’
I will reply, ‘It is people, it is people, it is people.’
Our Te Aratika Graduate is a young person who has a positive sense of well-being confident and competent, and is culturally connected as Māori and/or Pacific.
These interdependent competencies combine to create a tūāpapa, a firm platform, from which young people can step into employment and career pathways, and contribute in a positive role within whānau, hapū, iwi and hapori with confidence and competence.
