Identity
The centre of Mount Maunganui College's touchstones is the identity of our students and community. Identity being how one thinks about
themselves, the way they are viewed by the world and the characteristics that define them.
Mount Maunganui College recognises that in accepting one’s identity as important, students, staff and whānau have increased ability to
recognise, understand, be happy with and be proud of their identity.                                                                     1.     Use of a digital device is a privilege not a right. If I abuse that privilege, I expect to lose it.
