It has been a busy month for our kura. The December newsletter is a culmination of the multiple celebrations and gatherings that have taken place in the last two months for our tamariki and whānau. We also thank our departing staff for contributing positively to our kura. As we draw the year 2022 to a close, we want to thank our tamariki, whānau and hapori (community) for another successful and fun-filled year. Please take care of yourselves during the holidays.
