After several months of planning and preparation, our new astroturf began installed during the week.

Unfortunately the stormy weather this week has held up its completion but the installer will be back at school on Monday to finish.

Many thanks to the various school groups and wider community that have made it happen through their donations and contributions of time and labour - including the Board of Trustees; the PTA; Russell Povey Concreting; Brendan O'Connell of All Terrain Bob Cat Services; A Taste of Matarangi; and Pub Charity.

The tamariki will be able to enjoy this new asset for many years to come.
