End of term wrap up - Co-School Leads
Kia ora whฤnau, parents, kids and kaiako! We've had a great term and here is the end of term article where we will tell you all about what happened. Plus a bit about next term.
We have got some simple news like the library is up and running and really important news, Ms.Rayner getting kittens. ๐ฑ
Good term, everyone! We have done so much. Sports day with kฤkฤriki | green house winning with 62 and kahurangi | blue with 61. We had a Ninja Warrior course and, amazingly, you guys dominated all the obstacles with an awesome time. The fire fighters came down to give us delicious hotdogs and a fizzy drink (don't tell your parents). We learned about Waitangi Day and why it's important to us now and in the future, swimming sports was so fun with Kลwhai house in 1st place and we had 10 people go to Zones swimming and two to Canterbury which was Izzie who came 8th and Flynn who came 16th.
๐ Congratulations to the Kids' Lit Quiz team who will do an amazing job tomorrow at the competition - probably because we have the smartest readers in the world and congrats to Sam for winning the book challenge.
๐ฐ Also another great part is that the Easter Bunny came which meant 5 days off and the Easter Egg Hunt organised by the PTA (thanks!) - I tell you what, the marshmallow eggs were amazing. We did it super fast and there still might be some eggs and checkers around - bring them to the office for a house point if you find them.
๐ Now the fun part. If you had a birthday and you or your parents are reading this, please sing them a happy birthday. ๐ค
๐ There's lots on next term too. There is a new version of the school calendar attached. Pink Shirt Day is on Friday the 21st of May in Week 3 and we will celebrate it as a whole school - get your pink gear sorted over the holidays to make it easy for you! If you want to know more go to the Pink Shirt Day website.
๐โโ๏ธ๐๐พโโ๏ธ Cross country is also coming up on Tuesday the 18th of May. The Year 7&8 races are 3km and the Year 4&5 are 2km so you could start training for that over the break too. The juniors will also have a race, but not as far.
See ya, bye!
Nฤ, your co-school leaders,
Flynn & Kate
