    I just wanted to say Well done Whaea Trina. You are an inspiration to our tamariki, an inspiration to us as a whanau.
    I know you have been here since 2007, a lot has changed in that time and I think you will be a major loss to Nelson Central School.
    You deserve the stars because you are one, and you deserve to be somewhere where your talent is appreciated by your kura. We appreciate all you have done Whaea, and will love and miss you always
    Ma te wa

Tribute from Prince Tui Teka for the 28th Māori Battalion

Te Karere- Māori Battalion

Tuini Ngawai- Arohaina Mai

Tuini Ngawai (1910 - 1965) was an awesome writer of beautiful songs. This song, Arohaina mai, was written in 1940 and is considered by many to be the greatest Māori song ever written. It is the unofficial hymn of the Maori Battalion. It is said that on her way home from a service for the C Battalion, held on the Waiparapare Marae at Tokomaru Bay, she sat down on the roadside to rest and the words came into her mind. This video is to honour Tuini and Te Hoko whitu a Tu; which toured New Zealand during the Second World War, performing and collecting funds for the Maori Battalion overseas.
