    About the School



    .
Theme of the Week
Naku te rourou, Nau te rourou.
Ka ora te Iwi.

With my food basket and your food basket.
The people will be fed.

Here at MAGS, we can replace food with knowledge and share all our
information to help the students. This is a well-known proverb used when
talking about helping each other  and also in times of need.

This is an appropriate proverb when the theme of Maori language Week is
one of food.
