Remembering Clive Pope
Date: 11 May 2026
He pōuri nui tō mātou ngākau as we acknowledge the passing of Clive Pope.
Clive's contribution to physical education in Aotearoa spanned decades. He was a colleague, a mentor, and a friend to so many in our community. His mahi left a lasting mark on countless ākonga, kaiako, and communities across the motu.
We know many of you will want to share your memories of him.
We've set up a memory board where you can contribute a photo, a reflection, a story, or even just a few words. We'd love to be able to share these with Clive's whānau at a later date. There is no pressure to write something perfect. A small moment, a picture, or a simple memory is very welcome.

Clive's whānau have asked for privacy at this time, and a celebration of life will be held at a later date. We will share details with our community when the time comes.
Nō reira, e te rangatira, moe mai rā. Haere, haere, haere atu rā.
Our thoughts are with Clive's whānau and all those who had the privilege of knowing him.
