Kia ora everyone! 

Wow, it's the last Friday of the year and what a super-busy week we have had. We are all ready for the holidays that's for sure!

This afternoon, we held our finals for our first ever Grow-Cart competition! Most of the school was out watching the race which included water balloons and a foam machine!

This morning we finalised our Prefect team for 2025. It's always a difficult decision given the calibre of the students who apply but we had a great selection panel who I think have chosen an awesome team. There will be announcement posts on Facebook so keep an eye out.

Head Prefects: Rua Taupo and Jayden Stevens

Arts Prefects: Ava Schmidt and Nicole Borreta

Mana Prefects: Kevin Alontaga and Repo Perez

Sports Prefects: Sam Hobart and Emily Cooney

Yesterday, I took a group of students to the Library opening in town and we had a tour of the new facility. Such as asset for our community!

Today, I got took some students to Community Link to deliver food that was donated as part of our recent non-uniform day so thank you for your donations. I know this food will go a long way to supporting our community over Christmas.

Next week is another busy, final week with activities days and then prizegiving on Thursday.

Have a great weekend,

Jo
