As we advised in the newsletter last week, school is closed on Monday so that our our mid-year learning conferences can start from 12 noon.

We are closed so staff can prepare for the parent and teacher interviews which are starting at 12 noon.

Our teachers are attending either a morning or afternoon meeting to avoid disruption to our tamariki and whānau by having to close early like other schools.

We invite you and your whānau to join us for our annual Matariki Evening on Thursday 8th July from 6-8pm.

We'd be really grateful if each family could donate at least one potato for Matariki night please.

If you have a child that will start school with us this year or in 2022, please get in touch now!

We've extended the deadline for orders to Tuesday 29 June. Have a day off making school lunches and help us fundraise - everyones a winner!

Save yourself a day making lunches and help the Year 8s fundraise at the same time :)

Year 5-8 children will compete in a Winter Sports competition against others schools.

Attached is the draw for this weeks games

Wow, I can't believe we are about to enter Week 9! Week 8 was a time filled with fun, experience, and creativity as we explored light through our ALS story, 'In the beginning'.

Phew, what a busy couple of weeks we have had!

Fingers crossed for snow

A huge congratulations to Braedyn, Emmie, Jedd, and Nieve who participated in the Christchurch Technology Challenge after school on Thursday.

Check out our progress on designing and building a lookout at our biota node!

Would you like your Year 3-8 child to take part in a maths competition?

While the Winter Sports tournament is on we will have just one bus home each Friday - departing just after 3pm.

Have you got yours yet?

Each month I share an update of our goings on with the wider community via the Woodpecker. Here's what I've shared for the June publication.
