It's wonderful to see some of students in during the holidays utilizing tutorials preparing for their exams this week.  

 Although there have been a few students disappointed with their lack of exam preparation and left exams early, it's important to remember that exams can be challenging, and setbacks are a part of the learning process. Don't be disheartened by those experiences; instead, use them as motivation to keep pushing forward and striving for success.  There will be tutorials running up until the external examinations, and I encourage students to make good use of this resource.

As we move through the term, I encourage you to check the calendar for upcoming events. We have some exciting activities and gatherings planned. 

We are mindful as a community that a number of our families are facing significant challenges with members of their whānau sick and we keep them in our prayers.  We ask you to pray for healing especially for the Hickey, Lopez, Patel and Dela Cruz families.
