At Te Pahū School, students have a wide range of leadership opportunities, being a small school means that every student has the chance to take on meaningful roles and make a real impact. Leadership positions include:

• The Enviro team where students promote sustainability and environmental stewardship.
• Sporty students can step up as team captains or leaders, helping to organize events and encourage teamwork.
• The School Council offers a chance for students to represent their peers and participate in important decision-making processes.
• Library monitors help manage resources and create an inviting space for reading and learning.
• Peer mediation roles allow students to assist in resolving conflicts and fostering positive relationships within the school.
• House Leaders coordinate house activities and inspire school spirit.
• Head Students serve as role models, representing the school with pride.

In our small school, these roles offer students a unique chance to develop leadership skills, build confidence, and contribute meaningfully to the school community.

We place great value on our tuakana-teina relationships and the principle of ako, fostering a learning environment where knowledge and skills are shared mutually. We believe in the power of reciprocal learning, where both teaching and learning flow in all directions.
