Whanau Hui/Survey Winners!
Last term during Whanau Hui we also sent home Whanau Hui Survey’s, survey’s that were returned were all put into the draw to win a yummy school lunch shout!
Our lucky winners were: Toa, Haki and Arihia.
Whanau Hui attendees also went into the draw to win a school polo shirt, congratulations also to Phoenix Bright who won themselves a snazzy new polo!
CondolencesSadly last week Whaea Libby Harris who was a reliever at our school some time ago passed away. Our sincere condolences to her whanau at this sad time.
From the School Council
