Visit this articleKia ora e te whānau,
This week has been Celebrating Our Cultures Week at school - one of my highlights for the year. It has been wonderful to see all our learners representing their diversity and celebrating one another's culture. Seeing the different colours, flags and nations represented in our learning community was amazing. It was a great picture of our school and showed who we are. We are a diverse bunch who celebrate our differences and learn from each other. There is strength in our diversity. No matter who you are, what culture you are from, you have a place here - you belong!
