The greys and blues represent the skyline of Māwhera, Ranginui, the sky father. The blue/ purple represents Māwhera river, and the greens represent the lush bush,  Papatuanuku the Earth mother. The kupu come from our weekly school newsletter as part of our whole school participation in Te Wiki o te Reo Māori/ Māori Language Week 2014 – Te Kupu o te Wiki/The word of the week.
