Last week, three lovely girls,Grace, Rose and Ella from Lincoln High School presented our school with gifts of stationery, art supplies,  chocolates and a donation as part of their Social Action studies at school. Their goal was to support schools in Canterbury and they had held two bake sales  at Tai Tapu and Prebbleton schools.Thank you so much girls for your initiative and kindness.

Hui Ako

This is an opportunity to hear about the progress and learning for this half year which will be in the school report. The school report will be available on the hero app on Thursday 30 June.
