Pride, aroha and excitement are only some of the words we would use to describe our Prizegiving this year. Whaea Nellie stated that although not all tamariki would receive an award, "we see you all". It was especially pleasing to see all our year 8 students called to the stage to receive a certificate and celebrated at the leaver's assembly. Please see below the full list of prizes awarded this year.
