This week, I was invited to take part in a co-design workshop to review and discuss one of the 3 key aspects of the Project RISE initiative (for more info click here)
I choose facilities because I have been at the school for over 20 years and the last time I remember seeing a new build was probably back in 2006 when the EP6 block was opened.
Although I wished our whole staff could have participated, I felt blessed to be at a table with a wide range of our T.C staff, both new and old, Maori and Pasifika, male and female as well as 4 ex-students and double the blessing we had Rev Joel with us too! We were able to brainstorm some creative ideas and it was a really cool session where we able to designed our dream ideal space.

At the end of the day, each group had to stand up and present to the whole workshop. We called ourselves ‘Le Puha’ and all the Tongans in the room had a giggle when Rev said our name. Our design was so well received, we even made the newsletter. I can’t wait to see where the journey goes from here.
Our team made the front page! |
