This can also be done via the website. GET ORDERING!

It is with much sadness that I announce the resignation of two long-serving and dedicated staff members Mrs Theresa Miller, Deputy Principal of Senior School, and Ms Louise Simich, Senior Guidance Counsellor.
A warm Dio welcome to the following new members of staff.
Reverend Stephen Black
On the 9th of August 1173, construction began on one of the most famous towers in the world. A generous widow bequeathed enough stones to lay a foundation, and within a few years, a ground floor with a blind arcade was established. In 1178 engineers added another floor in marble.
Dio Arts Department
At the end of Term 3, our students competed in the Waikato Secondary Schools’ Culinary Fare in September - showcasing their talents in a wide variety of culinary arts, from cakes and cold desserts to mystery boxes and burgers. Everyone who entered did a fantastic job, and we came away with five gold awards, 11 silver awards and 14 bronze awards as well as the top school title!
You’re invited to the BioBlitz with The Fairfield Project. It’s a fun, free event for the whole family - you’ll help us search high and low to find all sorts of creatures and learn heaps in hands-on workshops.
Dio Day, organised by our incredible student leaders, was a time for fun and to celebrate Dio friendships and our special school. Check out the images from the day in the Photo Galleries section of this publication. #dioday2022 #makingmemories #thediodifference
