Sports

Almost 60% of students participate in at least one code. College teams participate in all sports organised in the Wellington-Porirua areas. Each sporting code relies upon the assistance given by parents in transport, coaching, supervision and support. All interested helpers are warmly invited to contact the College.

Restorative Practices

Tawa College deals with behaviour management issues using a Restorative Practice approach. The approach focuses on the relationships which have been damaged by the misconduct and how best these relationships can be restored. This involves students “making things right” and also putting into place strategies and support so that the behaviour is not repeated.
