Principal's Message
|
Kia Orana St Ignatius Community,
This week we’ve had the privilege of welcoming students and staff from Tokyo Boys University High School into our college. It has been a joy to host them as part of a growing relationship between our two schools. Developing good relationships with high quality schools from around the globe provides wonderful opportunities for the sharing of culture, growing a global awareness and the making of new friendships.
As a Catholic Ignatian school, we are committed to forming students who are open to the world, reflective, and who are welcoming of neighbours. Visiting schools help bring these aspects of growth and mission to life, creating meaningful opportunities to help to form our students.
The media is full of stories of countries in disagreement or in conflict or at war. Developing international perspectives through international student visits helps students to actually experience that there is a world out there with many, many people who are looking for peace and friendship, just as they are. The hospitality they provide and relationships they develop help to form men and women for and with others, a key aspect formation that is important for us. So, it has been a pleasure to see Years 9 and 10 welcoming, serving and growing friendships.
Our hope is that this visit will be the start of a great relationship with Tokyo Boys University High School, which will also lead to a Japanese Girls school visiting next year as well. We look forward to continuing to grow global programmes over the coming year with more connections with our Chinese and Japanese partners, with Jesuit and Companion Schools in Australia, our special connection with Leone XIII in Milan and new connection with a Jesuit school in New York.
Through the growth of our global programmes may our students find God in their neighbour far and wide and grow richer in the knowledge of our diverse and beautiful common home. Finding God in all things.
Inveniens Deum in omnibus,
Dean Wearmouth

Not From the School Pulpit Series - A Fortnightly Reflection by Fr. Eka
Mary of the Cross Mackillop, the Australian Saint
Today, the New Zealand Church, like in Australia, celebrates the Feast of Saint Mary of The Cross. Mary Helen Mackillop was born in Melbourne in 1842 and died in Sydney, 8 August 1909. From a young age, Mary believed in doing something to help whenever she saw a need; and she saw great needs for care and education among destitute women and children in rural and regional parts of South Australia. She famously said, “Never see a need without doing something about it.” However, her courageous works later caused concerns for the Church authorities and she was later unjustly and wrongly excommunicated – expelled from the Church. The judgement was eventually reversed by the bishop who proclaimed it, and who repented of his mistake on his deathbed. Since then, the Josephite Sisters have established over 40 schools in Australia and Aotearoa.
 Life is full of struggles and fears. We all want to overcome them and feel secure. However, we then associate security with what is too familiar to us: food, clothes, wealth and comfort. We begin to perceive that once we have those, our life is secure. For our younger people, this false sense of security may even be amplified in and through social media, giving so much pressure for them to conform. Who has the best brand names, exam scores, and TikTok likes? Yet, these have often made them anxious, confused, afraid and bitter. Or worse, these could lead to greed, self-centredness and ambivalence toward the pain and suffering of others.
Despite having all the reasons to be anxious and bitter, Mary Mackillop was not. It was her abiding trust in God’s love and her gratitude for God’s providence in her day-to-day life that truly sustained her, even in the face of great life difficulties, false accusations, betrayals and calumnies that befell her. She once told her Josephite Sisters, “Whatever troubles may be before you, accept them bravely, remembering Whom you are trying to follow. Do not be afraid. Love one another, bear with one another, and let charity guide you all your life.”
In the Gospel reading for her Feast Day (Matthew 6:25-34), Jesus taught his disciples to put the constant worries of day-to-day things in the larger vision of his Father. “Do not worry / do not be anxious” has the Greek word merimnáō which means “to be pulled apart by cares”. Perhaps, the phrase could be better translated as “Do not be preoccupied with …”, “Do not be so absorbed in all these other concerns, as to lose sight of God and trust in God”. Jesus’ teaching is a reminder that our sense of self-sufficiency is often an illusion. We will never be sufficient without God.
Grounded in Jesus’ assurance that we are worth “more than many sparrows”, Mary Mackillop did not let fear dictate her choices. She simply asked, “What need is before me, and what can love do about it?” With that, perhaps, we can name one concrete need in our world—a lonely friend, a neglected household chore, a justice issue on the news—and meet it with the courage of Saint Mary MacKillop. In doing so, we’ll remember exactly Whom we follow.

Curriculum
Art - Year 10 Art Gallery Trip
On Thursday our Year 10 Art students had the opportunity to travel to the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki to see the 'A Century of Modern Art' exhibition. This once in a lifetime exhibition allowed ākonga to see paintings by famous artists up close, to see the brushstrokes, textures, and crisp colours. With artworks by Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Picasso, Matisse, Dega, Mondrain, and so many more, there was an abundance of inspiration for the students to sketch and study.
Annabelle Shields and Oli Yee reflect on the day:
"Yesterday, the three Year 10 Art classes for 2025, had the privilege of visiting 'The Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki'. There, we engaged with an extensive range of artistic works- from sculptures and abstract pieces to one-point perspective drawings and Renaissance portraits. The visit was an awesome opportunity to deepen our understanding of different art forms, techniques, and artist unique styles. Through guided tours through the gallery and many interactive activities, we were all able to connect classroom learning with hands-on creativity. Overall the day was an awesome experience and a perfect way (through art) to Find God in all things."
- Annabelle Shields 10AM
"On Thursday, the Year 10 Art students here at St Ignatius went on a trip to the Auckland Art Gallery, and it was an enriching experience for all of us. It had blended the artistic talent of historical figures with a deep cultural background. This profound experience had taught us students to appreciate the depth and meaning behind each stroke of a paintbrush and every expression on one's face. It also opened our eyes to the powerful narratives within the Maori Pacific Art, reminding us of the creativity of the artists. There were many paintings that told a story of someone’s life, or resembled a hidden symbol within the canvas."
- Oli Yee 10FM

Mathematics - Mathex
Our School was the host of this year's Counties Year 9 and 10 Mathex Competition. It was wonderful to show off our lovely school!
"Our Mathex evening started with a prayer led by Rosaria, and then Ms. Clark guided us to our team desks. St Ignatius had two teams in the competition, Team A and Team B, and we were proud to be representing Team B.
After a quick walkthrough showing where the runners needed to go, the competition officially began. We opened our first question and got straight into it. The questions were definitely challenging, and we had to skip a few, but we stayed focused and worked well together. In the end, we managed to solve 9 questions, which gave us a total of 45 points.
That score put us in a tie for third place with Rosehill College’s A team, which meant we had to do a tiebreaker. It was a bit nerve-wracking, but we stayed calm, read the question carefully, and after a few tries we got it right. That secured us third place overall.
It was a tough competition but a great experience, and we were really proud of how we worked together as a team."
- Nic Madelozo 9AM
Here was the tie-breaker question that our Year 9s got correct, have a go (and scroll to the bottom of the newsletter for the answer:
There are 3 playing cards in a row. A ten is on the left of a heart. A diamond is to the left of a spade. An eight is to the right of a king. A heart is on the left of a spade. What are the 3 cards?

 Mathematics - Basic Facts
At the start of each term all students are tested on their basic facts. This is a 5 minute quiz, with 100 questions. Each one is the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of single digit numbers. Our goal is for all students to get a score of 70% or higher. The graph below shows the proportion of students who have got a score of 70% or higher, as the year has gone on. We are improving!
Here are three free sites we recommend for practice. Regular practice is better than long practice. 5-10 minutes is plenty for one session!

 Te Reo
In Te Reo Māori today our visitors from Tokyo, with support from their buddies, worked on their own version of a pepeha. They learnt about what it means, and wrote their own, focusing on the concept of connections. The students then all joined in learning to use rakau.  | |  |
Te Whare Tapu Whare - House activity
Once every term, each house spends a Wednesday afternoon exploring Te Whare Tapa Whā, a holistic view of health that uses a wharenui (meeting house) as a metaphor. Each of the four walls of the wharenui represents a different dimension of wellbeing. These dimensions are: Taha Tinana (physical wellbeing), Taha Hinengaro (mental and emotional wellbeing), Taha Wairua (spiritual wellbeing), and Taha Whānau (family and social wellbeing).
We then link these to our 4Cs: Compassion, Conscience, Competence, and Commitment.
This term, our focus is on Conscience. During this session the students from 10AM split up and taught each of the younger year levels in Acutis Magdalene House, showing great commitment and leadership skills.

  Ākonga Elective
Chess
The school chess club is a vibrant space where students come together to enjoy the timeless game of chess. It’s not just about strategy and competition — it’s about the joy of learning, thinking ahead, and sharing moments of friendly challenge with fellow ākonga. Whether a beginner or a seasoned player, everyone finds excitement in each move and delight in learning or discovering new tactics. Solving weekly challenges can also lead to winning lollies.
The club hopes to nurture patience, concentration, fortitude and creative problem-solving, all while building friendships across year levels. A tournament will start closer to the end of the term. Winners will be determined by their skills but nonetheless the true celebration happens during each game and in every friendship that it sparks.

Calling for Meat Donations – Young Vinnies Cooking for a Cause
Our Young Vinnies students will soon be putting their hands (and hearts) to work in the kitchen, preparing meals to donate to those in need. As part of this service project, we’re seeking donations of fresh or frozen meat (e.g. mince, chicken, sausages) to help make hearty, nourishing meals for a local food bank or charity.
If you're able to contribute, please send an email to [email protected]
Thank you for supporting our students as they live out their faith through service! |
Welcoming Tokyo City Boys to St Ignatius
This week, we have had the absolute pleasure of welcoming 38 students and 2 teachers from Tokyo City Boys' School for a two-week stay here at St Ignatius College. During their time here, our guests are staying at the homes of our St Ignatius families and are being paired as buddies with our Year 9 and 10 boys.
From the outset, we have been incredibly impressed by the respectful manner, enthusiastic attitude, and outstanding English language skills shown by our Japanese visitors. Their eagerness to learn and engage fully in school life has been inspiring, and our students are also learning so much in return. Strong friendships are already forming across cultures.
Next week promises to be just as exciting, with a series of friendly New Zealand vs Japan sporting fixtures, an Anzac biscuit cooking class, and a special visit to St Joseph’s Primary School. There, our visitors will share elements of Japanese culture with the younger tamariki, including language, games, and traditions.
This cultural exchange is proving to be a rewarding and enriching experience for everyone involved. We are proud to be part of such a meaningful opportunity for connection and learning.  | |  |

 Cook Islands Language Week
"Kia Orana koutou katoatoa
This week we celebrated Epetoma o te reo Māori Kuki Airani language week. 2025 The Cook Islands Māori language week’s theme was ‘Atui’tui’ia au ki te raurau a toku matakeinanga— “Connect me to the offerings of my people.” Cook Islands Language Week's theme is important because it gives us the chance to celebrate who we are, where we come from, and how we honor our families and God with our culture. At Monday’s assembly our Kuki Airani akonga shared our culture with the entire school. To start the assembly, we gifted our principal and SLT with ei katu (flower crown) and ei rauti (garland) to show them our respect for them with traditional Cook Island items. Cook Islands Language Week is an extremely important time for me because it gives me the chance to bring diversity to my school. This week I was able to celebrate my language, my traditions, and my food. 2025 St Ignatius of Loyola Cook Islands Maori Language Week was a week for the books. It was a beautiful reminder that our language and culture are treasures to be shared, celebrated and carried with pride."
- Olivia Fitzpatrick 10RA
"I’m half Cook Islander. To some people that’s not enough.
They look at my skin, my features and they don’t see what I carry. I’m constantly asked “Where are you really from?” They hear my last name and raise an eyebrow. Some don’t think I look like my family, and that’s okay because my culture isn’t something I put on when it’s convenient, It’s something I live. Being Cook Islander isn’t about how you look, it’s the conscience that you carry.
Though I may not fit the image some expect, the beautiful culture I carry does not diminish. Aitu, Enuamanu, the land of the birds, reminds me that my people have always ventured far, but home is where our roots remain strong. It’s in the language we speak, the songs we sing, and the dance we perform. Being a Cook Islander means living with Love, respect and responsibility for our family, friends and community. It means carrying pride in who we are, no matter what anyone else says or thinks.
Meitaki ma’ata e kia manuia tatou katoatoa.
Thank you very much, and may we all stay blessed."

Faber Mass
"This week during House Magis time, students from Faber Marian House attended the Faber mass, celebrated by Father Eka Tanaya SJ. On Wednesday, we also commemorated the Feast of the Transfiguration, which is when the disciples Peter, John and James witnessed Jesus talking with the prophets Moses and Elijah while they were praying on the mountain. The Mass was reverent and reflective through Father Eka’s thoughtful homily and the devoted participation of students."

World Youth Day Auckland 2025
Some of our St Ignatius students had the privilege of going along to an AMAZING experience last Saturday 2nd August at the Victory Convention Centre. Over 1800 young people gathered for our annual celebration of joy, hope and experiencing the tangible love of Christ.
We had 32 of our young people from both St Ignatius and St Patrick's Pukekohe Youth Group head along to this day, with all of them BUZZING with excitement and filled with the Spirit. The invitation from World Youth Day was the same message we hear about the Jubilee Year of Hope, to go out into our world and be tangible beacons of HOPE, in Jesus' Name.
We are so grateful to the ACYM team for hosting such an awesome event. Please pray that the seeds planted in the hearts of our students at this event will continue to be watered and flourish as the year goes on.

Give it a Go!
This week, we were excited to welcome Bowls New Zealand to St Ignatius, providing an inclusive and engaging sporting opportunity for our ākonga.
This partnership supports our vision “to ignite a passion for sport in every ākonga, inspiring a lifelong journey of physical activity and personal excellence,” and offers a meaningful alternative for students who may not currently be involved in traditional sports.
At St Ignatius, we encourage every ākonga to “Give it a go!” — because sometimes, trying something new is all it takes to spark a lifelong passion.

Rugby Sevens
On Wednesday we took three teams over to Wesley College to play in a mini Rugby 7’s tournament.
We used the event as part of our Rugby development and it was awesome to see the skills of our year 7 & 8 students.
Our year 9 & 10 team joined forces with Te Taamatatanga o Pukekohekohe having never played together as a team you certainly wouldn't have known.
Thank you to our student leaders and parents for your support getting our teams to the event and assisting throughout the games.
Counties Rugby will be assisting us with ongoing development training for the year 7 & 8s. Trainings for the rest of Term 3 will be Monday 3.15-4.15pm.
This is open to any year 7 & 8s wanting to play rugby or rugby sevens for the school.

 PRE-AIMS Boys and Girls Football Tournament
An excellent day was had by both teams at Crum Park on Wednesday.
Both teams showed high workrates, determination and teamwork as they edge closer to tournament week, the tournament has given the teams some areas to work on as they start to put the final touches on their build up.
PRE- AIMS RIP Rugby
Our teams had a strong showing this week, finishing with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses. While we know one of those losses could’ve gone our way, the experience was full of valuable learning — both in terms of our gameplay and some useful tricks and technical aspects of the game.
We’ve also connected with the Strathallan coach and are planning a practice match ahead of AIMS to help fine-tune our preparations. Onwards and upwards!
 Auckland Secondary Schools Road Race
"St Ignatius had an unforgettable day at the 2025 College Sport Road Running
Championships! Our students brought incredible spirit, determination, and
energy—both on and off the course. Despite the chilly weather and light
drizzle, every runner pushed through, crossing the finish line with pride.
We’re so proud of the placings achieved and the way our team supported one
another from start to finish."
Annabelle Shields 10AM
"On Tuesday, a select group of students had the exciting opportunity to represent our school at the Auckland College Sports Road Race. The event was held outdoors, and although we were lucky to avoid the rain, the sky remained overcast and the wind was strong throughout the day. Despite the challenging weather conditions, all of our students achieved amazing results. They competed against runners from other schools and made our school proud. For many of us, it was our first time taking part in an event of this size, which made it nerve-wracking and exciting. The race course was tough, with long stretches of road that really tested our endurance. But we encouraged and supported each other the entire way, which made the experience even more meaningful."
