Whakaute (Respect): Our Core Mercy Value at Carmel College

This year, Carmel College is proudly embracing Whakaute (Respect) as our core Mercy value.  In Physical Education, we demonstrate respect in various ways:

  • Listening attentively and following instructions promptly.
  • Respecting others’ ideas and perspectives.
  • Communicating with kindness and consideration.
  • Being punctual and well-prepared for class.
  • Following and respecting the rules of the game.
  • Being inclusive and welcoming to all.
  • Offering support and encouragement to peers.

Each term, Year 7-10 students have the opportunity to nominate their classmates who best demonstrate this core value.  A student from each class is then chosen to receive the Whakaute Award, with their name and photo proudly displayed on our Whakaute display board in the PE Department.

We are pleased to announce the Term 1 recipients of the Whakaute Award.  Congratulations to these students for exemplifying respect in all they do in Physical Education.
