Wow! The Kākano team has some talented children.

This last week of term 2 has seen many successes with our students across the school.  Today we had our Open Day and classes received many positive comments about the students' learning. It was great to have so many visitor come  into the school.   On Monday we had our school assembly and celebrated  a number of performances with our choirs.  Our sporting achievements with our basketball for our year 5-6 students was a new competition we entered out students in.  As we enter term 3 the challenge for everyone will be completing our Education Brief and collating the ideas from our students, parent and staff as we begin the process to renovate our learning spaces. I hope you all have a restful and enjoyable break and we look forward to seeing  everyone on Monday 25 July.  A reminder of our Teacher Only Day on Monday 15 August when school will be closed.
