Occupations Day
Occupations is unique to our way,
Enhanced each term by our Occupations Day.
Theory into practice
This is adolescent play.
Learning with Dave
How food can behave.
Preserving this and fermenting that
House-made sausage coiled over coals and rack.
Learning to thrive
Living out our best lives.
Riley took time to share with our guys
The neuroscience of our brains inside.
Inspecting and dissecting,
Compartmentalising and aligning
Our actions and our feelings.
As in the end, we’re all just human beings.
Spurred by student desire
Lit up in our bellies a fire.
Aiming our STEM even higher!
To build an outdoor gym at Wairoa.
Designing and refining
Deliberating to fabricating
Problem-solving and building
(Such excitement for the maths-ing)
One nourishing bellies: Preserving Food
One strengthening minds: Thrive Guide
And one developing bodies: Building Fitness
