Welcome back to Term 3

Moira Blair —

We hope that you had a lovely break. We are excited to be back into learning in Term 3, with our schoolwide concept on structures.

We look forward to meeting with you this week to discuss your child's learning and progress in our parent partnership meetings. We welcomed our new families with a smaller powhiri this term.  The wild weather on Monday morning spoiled the plan to hold the powhiri under the crown, while the hall is being painted. Fortunately we have such a lovely large library space that we moved inside. 

Over the holidays we were able to complete a large part of the signage project, with a couple of obvious positioning issues to be sorted. The dispositions look great on the end of room 3.  These will also go up in the hall once the interior painting is completed. The newly coated red doors on the hall make it look great as you come up Mt Eden road! The Ministry of Education have indicated that the fencing project should still be on track for the October holidays, at which point we will finally be able to part with the temporary fencing through the internal parts of the school.

Term 3 is also a big one for our senior students as Toki team gear up for their production, to be held in week 8. Thank you to everyone who filled in our Board of Trustees parent survey - look out for feedback on this later this term.
