He was previously Deputy Principal at Te Aute College and Head of Māori at Napier Boys' High School. Since Matua Robin started the school roll has consolidated and is currently 310 boys and girls. The school has a reputation for being a whānau (family) community. Being smaller than others in the city means that individual student needs can be catered for and there is less chance of anyone falling through the cracks. The classes are typically around 20-25 students and smaller in the senior school. The school population is 55% Māori, 38% Pākehā with the rest of the students being Pasifika and Asian. Tamatea High School is committed to giving effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. This means that the school is working to ensure that mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) has parity with Western knowledge. The curriculum has a strong focus on te reo Māori (Māori language), tikanga Māori (Māori culture), local Māori histories, waiata and haka. Building a strong cultural identity is important for all students but especially Māori and Pasifika students is a foundation for academic success. The school sees this as an essential element of being a good treaty partner. The teaching fraternity at Tamatea High school is very close. The collegiality is a real positive for teachers in the school. They focus on building strong relationships with their students and often go the extra distance to support student success. Students have a strong voice in the school which means they influence everything from the learning programmes to uniform changes to property programmes. The whānau of students are included in the goal setting process and tracking of progress. Three times a year whānau are invited to half hour conferences with our Whānau Group Teachers. In these conferences students lead the conversation about their learning progress and next steps. Regular communication with families is encouraged. The school has three overarching goals: 1. All school leavers have meaningful pathways. 2. Accelerating the literacy and numeracy of junior students. 3. Improving engagement in classrooms. Typical student pathways include university, further training through the programmes at the Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT) or direct entry to employment. Student learning programmes are informed by their school leaver goals.

The Napier railway station in Napier, New Zealand was the main railway station in Napier and an intermediate stop on the Palmerston North–Gisborne Line. On 12 October 1874 the station and the first section of the line south from Napier to Hastings was opened. The line through the Manawatu Gorge to Palmerston North and hence to Wellington was opened on 9 March 1891. The first train carrying passengers had been organised by the contractors, John Brogden and Sons, on Tuesday 30 June 1874 to run from Napier to Waitangi.Construction commenced on a line north of Napier in 1912, first reaching Eskdale in 1922 after a series of delays and finally reaching Gisborne on 3 August 1942; passenger services commenced on 7 September. Napier was the terminus for both Gisborne and Wellington goods trains, though some passenger trains ran straight through, such as the Endeavour express. This section north was mothballed in 2012. The original Napier station building was on the corner of Station Street and Millar Street, close to the centre of Napier. The facilities on the site increased to include the passenger station plus a goods yard, locomotive depot, workshop, and a way and works (maintenance) depot. The line was on a curve and difficult to work, and the site was limited by level crossings at each end and with no room for expansion. To alleviate overcrowding, the way and works depot and most other functions were moved to Pandora Point at the start of the Ahuriri Branch during a two-year programme across 1989–91. Afterwards, only a new InterCity coach and train terminal remained on the city site, fronting Munroe Street. The old station was closed on 6 October 1990, with a new station opened on 9 June 1991. The former station and three-storey administrative block built in the late 1950s and early 1960s were demolished, making three hectares of land available for retail development. A marshalling yard, freight terminal, locomotive depot, and other facilities were established at Pandora Point, with a triangle provided to turn trains and giving direct access north and south from the port branch. The Ahuriri yard was closed. The old main line north to Gisborne was realigned to the east to allow a new link road to the Tamatea area of Napier, and railways land was redeveloped as an industrial subdivision. The Bay Express replaced the Endeavour in December 1989. The Endeavour had not run between Napier and Gisborne since March 1988, and the Bay Express likewise terminated at Napier. It was cancelled on 7 October 2001. The Bay Express was the last regular passenger service to use the station, but heritage excursion services visit the station multiple times each year.
