Celebrations

by Ms Libby Avery

Birthdays and Graduations are a very exciting time for teachers and children at The Cathedral Grammar Pre-School. It is important for children to celebrate these special occasions with their peers and family, and to acknowledge and appreciate this day with them. We can probably all remember the excitement of a birthday cake, and waiting with anticipation to eat this tasty treat.

Celebrating Māori Language week 10th - 16th Mahura 2018

by Ms Libby Avery

The theme for this year is 'Kia Kaha te Reo Māori’ ‘Let’s make the Māori language strong'. “Strength for an endangered language comes from its status, people being aware of how to support revitalisation, people acquiring and using it and from the language having the right words and terms to be used well for any purpose."
