Learning Celebration - This Thursday

Just a reminder to book this date in your calendar so that you remember to come along and look at the learning our ākonga have been doing this term.

  • Koru: 1.50 - 2.15pm
  • Harakeke/Pōhutukawa: 2.10 - 2.35pm

Students in Koru will be sharing their learning in Kōwhai, Karaka and Kākāriki in Koru Hub.
Students from Harakeke and Pōhutukawa have been working together for some of their inquiry learning this term, and will be spread out across Kikorangi, Māwhero, the Hall, and the Library.

If you would like to take your child home after they have finished their learning celebration (for Koru at 2.15pm, for Harakeke/Pōhutukawa at 2.35pm), you are welcome to do so. You will need to sign them out with the teacher with the roll from each hub.

If your child is booked into Kelly Club, and you take them home after they finish their Learning Celebration, please make sure you inform Kelly Club prior to 3pm.

Amesbury Awesomeness - This Friday

This term's Amesbury Awards will be held on the last day of term Friday 30 June - commencing at 2.15pm.

Whānau are invited along to find out, along with the rest of us, who this term's recipients are.

For those unable to attend we will share the names of the recipients with the school community in a future article.

We will be playing the ultimate game of musical statues and chairs, as well as playing a new game called ‘dance pies’ (the kids are in for a treat with this game!!). We will also be making party brownies and ending the term with a huge game of pass the parcel!
