Upcoming Cultural Celebration

I have really enjoyed seeing (and hearing!) our students practising With Heart for the upcoming Cultural Celebration.   Emily and Jack are part of the Junior Kapa Haka group, and they hope you'll come along in the last week of term to see their and others' performances.   Look out for your special invitation coming home in Week 9.

Picnic with the Principal

Kia ora!

Team Kauri Picnic with the Principal 18 June 2013

Team Koru Picnic with the Principal 19 June 2013















What a wonderful week - I've shared two picnic lunches with our amazing students. These students, and many more, were in the draw for displaying the C+O+O+L Factor or for Living our School Values (or both) in Term 2.   I enjoy listening to the children's stories and viewpoints, and acknowledging their achievements in many different areas of the curriculum.

The students whose names were drawn from the kete are, from Team Kauri:  Torrin, Zak, Samantha, Harrison, Alex, Gwen and Eva; and, from Team Koru:  Maximillian, Tilly, Manuel, Lily, Charlotte, Maia, Atalasa, Aidan, Diana, Yasiira and Alix (and Miss Jowett joined us too).   We all enjoyed a feast of pizza and fruit kebabs in our Community Room.  

Well done, everyone!
