What's on this week?
"Fun Run" - Monday
This Monday (10 June) is our inaugural "fun run" - but not as you know fun runs. Year 4-6 students came up with ideas and a number of these were incorporated into the event.
Tamariki are encouraged to wear their brightest fancy dress in the races. They should wear school uniform to school and change into fancy dress at lunchtime.
