From The Principal
Kia ora koutou
The big event is just around the corner, with the PTA hard at work preparing for what promises to be a particularly memorable parent event this Saturday evening.
PTA 'Casino Night'
All the details can be found below, including a last chance for tickets and auctions items - we hope many of you will be able to make it along to join in the fun on the night and support the invaluable work of our PTA volunteers!
Canopy Progress
Ground works and services are now nearing completion for the canopy, with the turf installation scheduled to begin by the end of September. Thanks for your patience during the construction on the top court - we'll share further updates on the timeframe as this project progresses further.
Maths Week
Last (but by no means least), we're holding our annual Maths Week next week, with a range of fun activities lined up to spotlight and promote mathematics around school, to be followed by Te Wiki o te Reo Māori | Māori Language Week the following week.
Themed weeks such as these are an invaluable opportunity to shine the spotlight on essential curriculum areas that are an integral part of everyday programmes, and we encourage you to get involved at home if you can - see below for some easy everyday activities you may want to try at home!
