Maeroa Intermediate provides a range of activities that provide opportunities for personal challenge and growth. We recognise those who seize the opportunities with our KORU SYSTEM. Students strive to earn their koru flashes and, along the way, build self-esteem, set goals, show commitment, take pride, and participate in the corporate life of the school, all adding to the Community we call Maeroa.
Earning a KORU FLASH can be as simple as:
- 100% attendance over a term or year
- Representing your class in a lunchtime sport
- Showing effort and progress in learning
- Taking time to help someone out
Each colour represents a specific area of recognition. Once you accumulate a certain number of flashes, you will be awarded a badge to mark your achievement, progressing from Bronze all the way to Super Star.
