Kāhui Ako
Pupuke (Westlake) Community of Learning
Te Kāhui Ako ō Pupuke
We are a unique and diverse community of learning. Our geographical community forms the northern part of the Devonport-Takapuna local board.
We are located near the beautiful Lake Pupuke, hence our name, the Pupuke Kāhui Ako. Pupuke stems from the Māori verb, pukea, which means to well up, rise or to increase in volume. Lake Pupuke is often referred to as a heart shaped lake.
Our Vision
Our vision is to extend, develop and connect our work as a community to ensure that our young people are; engaged, connected to their community, to the North Shore, to New Zealand and to the world. We want them to develop the competencies and vision to extend those connections throughout their lives. Our vision is New Zealand’s vision; we want our young people to be confident, connected, actively-involved lifelong learners.
