Snells Beach School’s kapa haka group

Snells Beach School’s kapa haka group was in fine form for the school’s 10th anniversary, which it celebrated on August 9.

Among the guests at the event was establishment principal Jill Corkin, who said the school held a place very dear to her heart.

She said that since her retirement, she still spent time in schools in Auckland and elsewhere, but in her view none compared to Snells Beach.

“The atmosphere here and the way everyone speaks to each other and interacts with each other still makes me feel very proud,” she said.
