International Day
On Thursday 11th April we are celebrating our International Day at school. We encourage the children to wear clothes that show their culture – it may be traditional clothes, clothes that are the colours of their flag, or something to show where their family comes from. We are also having a shared lunch in our classrooms.

Children's University is underway again for the year.
2024 is the 4th year that Papanui Primary has been involved with this wonderful programme. Children's University is supported by UC and Lincoln Universities. It encourages and recognises all the learning our tamariki do outside the classroom. This year we welcome back 9 children from previous years and have 13 tamariki taking part for the first time.
