Kia ora! It is a great pleasure to share that Term 3 has started with several events in our library.

Sign Language

Our visiting tutor, Julie Fraser, has started sign language sessions. These will be held for five days after school, sessions from 3-4pm. Students are building their skills and using them in daily life.

Sayu, Medha, Matisse, Isabella and Emmerson have won the Y9 Canterbury Reader's Cup this year and will participate in the National Readers’ Cup on 20th September. More than 10 high schools from around the country will compete in this year's challenge. 

The group need to travel to Auckland and are planning a Bake sale on 12 August at interval to help raise funds to get there. 

Please come and grab their home-made baking and help support them for the competition.

Book Week is Coming!!

Our librarians’ are aiming to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the library, and will host kahoots, competitions, creative craft and movie watching. Students and staff are welcome to join in all activities. 

We also hope to see you all participate in the dress up day on Friday 12 August. Photos will be taken in the library and prizes will be awarded.
