Week 8 Term 4

We are getting excited counting down to our Peter Pan Production-it is going to be amazing! Please, can all costumes be handed in by Wednesday as we have a dress rehearsal this week. 


Well done to our students who took part in the Weetbix Tryathlon this weekend. We hope you enjoyed the event. 


Good luck to Mila, Kennedy and Wairanaki (Our Ahurei reps) who take part in their Kapa Haka performance tomorrow. 


Kakano 1 and 2 are swimming this week

School Magazine

We are publishing a school magazine again this year, and this will be available during the last week of this term. There will be only 100 magazines printed and it will be a great memento of 2020. Orders will be taken now with the cost for the magazine being $10.00. Orders will be taken at the office. Be quick as there will only be 100 printed.
