Thanks so much to all of you who took the time to put your thoughts down on paper. We now have a much better insight into what is important to you, as we review the strategic goals for the school.

A significant part of our Board meeting this week was spent discussing the responses we received to the questions we sent home recently. We got so much feedback that we are going to have to fit in an extra Board meeting between now and the middle of term 4 to process it all. That's when we will be getting back to you with the new Strategic Goals, which Brendan then turns into a plan for the next three years.

On Monday of next week we are meeting with the Boards of all the Aupaki Kahui Ako schools for a mihi whakatau, hosted at LPS. I'm expecting it to be as entertaining as when these kura all came together last week for Aupaki Rocks. If you missed that, you missed out. 

If you are wondering who is on your school Board, check out our photo, which we updated recently.
