VIP visit

Last week, our school hosted our local MP and Minister of Education, Erica Stanford, and the Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon, to see mathematics resources and structured literacy in action. For security reasons, we were asked not to publicise the event.

Our guests were welcomed with a Mihi Whakatau (similar to a pōwhiri, but less formal) by our Year 5 & 6 students before seeing Mrs Hall teach mathematics using new resources and then structured literacy taught by Mrs Huysamen.

It was a memorable event for the staff and students involved and a confirmation of what a great school we have!
