Over the next two weeks, we will have a focus on caring for the environment. We can not respect God without respecting the world which He has given us. Let's stand together to ensure our children's children inherit a better world than we have now!

Term 4 Religious Education - Communion of Saints

October is the month of the Rosary. At school, we are celebrating this by pausing to pray a decade of the Rosary together each day at 2.50pm.

A huge thank you to the 60 parents who completed this survey last term. An initial analysis has occurred and we will soon publish a summary.

Kia ora and welcome back to Term 4. We hope you all had an enjoyable break and managed to find time to relax and enjoy the simple pleasures of family life. A warm welcome to Miss Helena Rossellini who is in her second year at University and is here on her Professional Practice placement in Ruru for 5 weeks. We wish her well in her teaching practicum.
