Welcome to the Sancta Maria College Community
Sancta Maria College whānau isn’t just made up of current students and staff, it is made up of a legacy of learners and achievers who have come before us, and will come through after us, shaping our school into what it is today. There is an opportunity for both old and new friends and whānau of Sancta Maria College to contribute and shape this future with a gifted donation. Your generosity will have a meaningful impact on the lives of our brilliant young people through the projects and programmes we offer. It may leave a lifelong legacy for a learner to remember or for a number of us to enjoy.
Some of the programmes and projects you can donate towards include:
Musical Equipment
The Music Department play an integral part within our school whānau, and our students’ performances and practices are at the heart with music students representing our school around the country, winning awards and accolades in major festivals and competitions. Providing opportunities to learn, thrive and explore musical instruments to advance learning is key to development and having instruments fit for purpose is essential. We are actively looking for donations towards two saxophones and ten keyboards.
The donation target is: $10,000

Kapa Haka Uniforms
To enhance the mana and authenticity of our performances and provide taonga for our students to wear during important formal occasions, we are seeking to invest in a set of piupiu. Piupiu are a waist (skirt like) or shoulder garment handmade from harakeke-flax through an elaborate and timely process following tikanga Māori – Māori cultural practices by weaving experts. The cost of piupiu varies depending on size and gender ranging from $476 – $840 per piupiu.
The donation target is: $38,000

Sports Equipment
We are looking to upgrade our facilities to enable more students to participate in games during lunchtime and interval by purchasing additional sporting equipment. Your donation would directly provide up-to-date netball and basketball glass backed towers to be installed in the newly re-surfaced covered turf area.
The donation target is: $15,000

Leaving a Legacy
In recognition of significant individual contributions made towards the school and our school community, each donation greater than $2,000 will automatically be eligible for a family plaque which the school will pay for and display in our Amphitheatre, located at the centre of our school grounds. We will be in contact with you directly if you are eligible.
