Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Board of Trustees News:

The Board of Trustees is excited to announce to our parent community the appointment of  Andrew Retallick to the Principal position. Andrew will start with us in Term 4.  Some may remember Andrew  as an ex pupil of Woodend School many years ago.   Andrew  has been Principal at Lepperton School in Taranaki and is looking forward to meeting the staff, parent community and students soon.

👏Welcome:

We welcome Toby who has started with us this week.  We hope you soon feel part of our school family.

We are nearing the end of another busy but very productive term.  Next term is shaping up to be just as busy !  We have four students who have made it through to the Canterbury Zones Cross Country being held today at Nga Punawai.  Congratulations to; Rebecca, R.J. Lucas and Ariya.  This is a huge achievement and we wish them all the best.
