Fictional Whare Evidence Pack

Choose one composite profile. Use its completed evidence extracts to build, test, and refine a Personal Whare Action Project without disclosing personal information.

Equal-status assessment route

How to use this pack

These profiles are invented. They combine ordinary school and community constraints without representing a real learner, diagnosis, culture, whānau, or health condition. Do not guess extra needs. Work only from the evidence provided and use “may” for possible connections.

Learning intentions | Ngā whāinga ako

  • Select specific evidence from at least three unit investigations.
  • Explain a plausible connection across whenua and at least two taha.
  • Build, test, and refine an accessible, mana-enhancing action without diagnosing the profile.

Success criteria | Paearu angitu

  • I label every evidence extract by lesson and separate observation from inference.
  • I include choice, support beyond individual willpower, and an observable indicator.
  • I keep the first prototype visible and explain one material change after testing.
1 · Choose
Koru, Rimu, or Awa. No explanation is required.
2 · Select
Use at least three extracts; more evidence is not automatically better.
3 · Build and test
Use the project canvas and rubric exactly as the personal and community routes do.

Materials and support

Use this pack with the Lesson 12 project canvas and Personal Whare Action Project brief and rubric. A kaiako checks the proposed focus before prototyping and follows normal school support procedures if a learner raises a real concern.

Curriculum Alignment | Te Hononga ki te Marautanga

Stress responses are often part of how the brain and body react to challenge, and understanding these responses helps people manage them by reframing thoughts, setting boundaries, and maintaining supportive relationships.

Composite Profile Koru

Belonging in a new kura

Context: Koru joined the kura this term. They enjoy drawing maps and designing small objects. They know two people in class but are still learning routines, spaces, and names.

Lesson 2 · Whenua

Place and access

The library feels predictable and has a staff member Koru knows. The busy canteen is hard to navigate. Koru's bus leaves at 3.20 pm, so after-school options need transport planning.

Lesson 3 · Wairua

Values compass

Koru selected creativity, reliability, and belonging. They wrote that contributing a useful design feels more meaningful than being put on the spot to “share about yourself”.

Lesson 4 · Tinana

Access and adaptation

Koru participates longer when instructions are demonstrated before a task starts and when a low-impact option is visible to everyone. They opt out when adaptations must be requested publicly.

Lesson 5 · Kai

Choice and participation

In a shared-kai scenario, Koru identified clear ingredient labels, a non-food contribution role, and permission to bring or eat something different as participation supports.

Lesson 8 · Hinengaro

Observable signals

Before a short presentation, Koru reread the prompt, asked when their turn would be, and spoke more quietly. The evidence does not prove one emotion or cause.

Lessons 10–11 · Support

People, places, pathways

Koru named a form teacher, a library staff member, one classmate, the library, and a lunchtime design club. The form teacher said they can help with an introduction rather than leaving Koru to enter alone.

Evidence limit and design tension

Nothing here shows that Koru needs treatment or that one strategy will fix belonging. A useful project must fit the bus timetable, allow private choices, and create contribution without compulsory personal disclosure.

Composite Profile Rimu

Recovery when responsibilities compete

Context: Rimu enjoys music production and helps with a younger sibling on some evenings. The responsibility matters to Rimu; the project must not frame whānau contribution as a personal defect.

Lesson 1 · System map

Connected evidence

On care evenings, homework begins later. Rimu's map connected schedule pressure with recovery, concentration the next morning, whānau contribution, and the need for realistic school support.

Lesson 3 · Wairua

Values compass

Rimu selected care, fairness, and making music. A plan that removes valued whānau responsibility without consultation would not protect mana or choice.

Lesson 6 · Movement

Movement experiment

A four-minute walk and a seated stretch were both rated easy to start. A competitive sprint raised energy but did not support a quiet transition into focused work.

Lesson 7 · Recovery

Pattern and constraint

Packing a bag earlier reduced one morning delay. It did not change the early bus, care timetable, or the amount of schoolwork. Rimu wrote that both personal routines and shared planning may be needed.

Lesson 9 · Regulation

Strategy test

A longer exhale helped during a 30-second sorting task; a brief movement break helped after sitting. The five-senses scan felt distracting when time was short. None was treated as a cure.

Lessons 10–11 · Support

Network and boundary

Rimu named a whānau adult, a neighbour approved for practical help, a music teacher, a dean, and a homework space open at interval. A peer may listen and accompany Rimu to an adult but cannot carry the plan alone.

Evidence limit and design tension

The evidence does not say Rimu is unsafe or unwell. A useful project must preserve valued responsibilities, avoid a plan based only on willpower, and include a backup when time, transport, space, or a support person changes.

Composite Profile Awa

Inclusive participation in a community club

Context: Awa helps plan a six-week lunchtime movement and games club. The club is for connection and participation, not fitness ranking, body change, treatment, or cultural performance without authority.

Lesson 2 · Whenua

Places and barriers

The indoor hall is weather-proof but booked one lunchtime. The courtyard is visible and free but noisy. A nearby community room requires adult authorisation and cannot be assumed available.

Lesson 3 · Wairua

Purpose and values

Awa selected fairness, contribution, and enjoyment. They rejected a leaderboard because it would shift the purpose from connection to comparison.

Lessons 4 and 6 · Movement

Equivalent options

Trial participants stayed involved when each activity offered standing, seated, low-impact, observation, and equipment roles. One fast rotation left too little time to understand the task.

Lesson 5 · Kai

Shared event design

For a possible celebration, the group identified ingredient labels, no pressure to eat, non-food roles, cost limits, and contributions other than bringing food.

Lesson 9 · Regulation

Context matching

A quiet preview card supported some participants before leading a game. A breathing prompt was useful only when optional. A noisy group countdown made it harder for two testers to follow instructions.

Lessons 10–11 · Support

Roles and authority

The network includes participants, a club coordinator, a duty teacher, whānau contact routes, and the school office. Awa may propose and test a format; an adult authorises spaces, safety arrangements, and external contact.

Evidence limit and design tension

The evidence cannot justify labelling any participant. A useful project needs opt-in and equivalent roles, a realistic location, clear adult responsibility, and an indicator based on participation/access rather than body or performance data.

Which taha or whenua is a useful entry point? Draw at least two arrows across the system.

Boundary and support

What must the project avoid? Who authorises, supports, adapts, or follows up?

Next: transfer this evidence brief to the Build → Test → Refine project canvas, stress-test it with one changed condition, and keep the revision visible.

Kaiako: offer this pack before learners choose an assessment route. What to print: print the whole pack or one profile plus the selection sheet. Do not ask why a learner selects the fictional route.
