Next week will be the last week for students to give to our school Christmas Giving Tree. Thank you to those families who have contributed a gift, however our tree is looking a little sad. We are still accepting donations of gifts for children, teens, families who might otherwise go without a present this Christmas. At the end of our Junior Curriculum project, during our Celebration of Learning ( Wednesday 12 December), the gifts will be distributed between Women's Refuge and/or the Salvation Army and/or the Christchurch City Mission.

Congratulations to Freya Champion who was successful with her application for ‘Youth Parliament 2019’ with Duncan Webb, Labour MP.
