Tēnā koutou katoa,
Ko Perehipitīriana te Hāhi
Ko Hāto Kēneti te tangata
Ko Hāto Kēneti te kura
Me ū ki te whakapono
Tīhei Mauri Ora.

Ko te mihi tuatahi ki te atua, nānā nei ngā mea katoa.
Ko te mihi tuarua ki te hunga mate, haere, haere, haere atu rā
Ki a tātou te hunga ora e huihui mai nei, kia kaha, kia maia, kia manawanui.
Tēnā hoki koutou e te mana whenua, kua tae mai mātou ki te tautoko i te kaupapa o te wā, arā, ko te whanaungatanga.
Ahakoa he iti, he pounamu.
Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa.
(WAIATA TAUTOKO - Mā wai rā)
Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa

Greetings to you all,
Presbyterian is the Church,
Saint Kentigern is the patron saint,
Saint Kentigern is the school,
Hold fast to the faith,
Behold, the breath of life.

The first greeting is to God, by whom all things were made.
The second greeting is to those who have passed on — farewell.
To us, the living who gather here — be strong, be brave, be steadfast.
Acknowledgements also to you, the local people — we have come to support the purpose of this time, that is, relationships and connection.
Although it is small, it is precious like greenstone.
Therefore, greetings, greetings, greetings to you all.
(Support Song Mā wai rā)
Therefore, greetings, greetings, greetings to you all.
