Our Crest & Motto
At Palmerston North Intermediate Normal School (PNINS), we place great importance on our past, our present and our future. We believe that our crest and motto honour where we have come from, celebrate where we are now, and welcome where we are headed.
Our school motto is ‘Haere Ake Ra’, meaning; ‘Onwards and Upwards’. This motto was suggested by historian James Cowan in 1940, and is worn by our school with pride. Our school crest reflects the special character, culture, and uniqueness of PNINS.
Our crest is made up of the lamp and the wave. The lamp symbolises knowledge, and the lighting up of the path of learning. The wave represents the Manawatu River; a landmark that is very important to both Palmerston North and the Rangitane iwi.
