We are taking this opportunity to refocus on the core purpose of the Celebration: To farewell our stunning Year 8s and to award our high achievers.
We are very excited to announce that we are booked into the new Christchurch Boys High Hall for our annual end of year Celebration. This will take place on Tuesday 12 December at 3:15pm.
Students are expected to be at school as normal at 9am in the morning. We will hold morning rehearsals at school before travelling as a school by bus to CBHS from 1pm.
The new streamlined affair will be much shorter and will include performances from our Kapa Haka, choirs and rock bands.
The awards are also getting a polish up. We have renamed our awards to align with our PYP values and integrate a bicultural focus.
