2024 Waikato/Bay of Plenty Architecture Awards Winner
Te Kura o Manunui
Te Kura o Manunui shines as an inspiring place of learning for tamariki, where kaupapa, tikanga, te reo Māori and community are entwined in the school’s vision. Collaboration with mana whenua, Ngāi Tamarāwaho, is evident in the cultural narrative that informs the planning, building graphics and landscaping. The refreshingly simple material selection includes monochrome black brick veneer accented with a white motif that reflects a bird in flight. Throughout the project, references to the site context through images of Mauao help to celebrate place.
