Sir Peter Blake was an outstanding example
of a Kiwi leader who dared to dream and
went out and made his dreams a reality. In
his final log aboard Seamaster, he said,
“The hardest part of any big project is to begin, you have to
believe you can do it.”
Profits from every pair sold will help the Sir Peter Blake Trust
continue his leadership and environmental legacy, by
inspiring young Kiwis to believe they can achieve their
dreams too.
Puketapu “Managers” Michael and Rishaal celebrating at Interschool
on Thursday
From a kid's point of view we see our school as a time away from home and learning new things for later in life, like jobs. This term in Kauri one and two we have started PrEP. PrEP is where we interview people and maybe give them a job. Now we join our company and begin making products to sell on the market day. Every company is different. For us children Respect, Achievement and Pride mean a lot to us. Respect meaning: respecting our teachers and other staff members. Achievement means: Achieving your goals, like making a profit at prep. Pride for us means: Having Pride in our school.
