We are seeking an enthusiastic member of our school community to join the board of Rewa Rewa School for the next 15 months, until the next board elections. We encourage anyone with a strong belief in diversity, our RIDE values and with possible experience in grant applications to contact the presiding member, Miranda Zander (miranda.zander@rewarewa.school.nz), to register your interest. Other board members are also available for you to have a general chat with. We meet twice each term on Tuesday evenings and at other times when the need arises. This is a great opportunity to guide the strategic direction of our wonderful kura.

Sunday, 11/08/2024
– Start Time: 06:00 AM
– End Time: 6:00 PM
– Facilities: Grounds, Hangi Pit
Tasks:
– Early morning: Need a handful of strong men at 12pm to put the hangi down.
– Afternoon: Help required to lift the hangi out.
– Late afternoon (around 5:00 PM TBC):
- On Sunday, we’ll light the fire around 6.00am, no helpers needed at this time, as we only need two or three men to do it, surely we can find that amongst ourselves.
- Around 12pm, we will put the hangi in the hole, we’ll need those strong men then to put it in the hole. At 4pm, we need those strong men again to take it out again. The Hangi will come out around 4.00 – 4.15 pm. With everyone arriving at 4.30pm to pick up (they tend to turn up around 4).
- We then need to wrap the hangi and dish it out, so we need helpers for this too, it’s a bit of system.
- A few (only 1 or 2 – anymore than that then you get hangi being handed out without knowing who too) handing them to the buyers. One person checking who has picked up their hangi (which is a huge help when you’re left at the end with hangi left, you’ll know exactly who hasn’t picked up), need quite a few putting them in their hot bags
- Drive through or Foot collection – TBC some health and safety things to consider
- Shared kai – During the Saturday as we prepare kai encourage whānau to bring a plate.
