    Dear Parents/Caregivers

    Ng mihi o te w kia koe me te whnau.

    We hope you have all managed to keep warm andsafe during this cold, wintery week. A big thank

    you to our Road Patrol people who have enduredthe chilly conditions to carry out their duties.It is much appreciated.

    Last week saw the creation of a new classroomin the Senior School to help alleviate a verypositive problem caused by a pleasing roll

    increase. Thank you all for your co-operation onthis as the new classes created are being verywell received by staff and the childrenthemselves. It has meant smaller class sizesand the ability to group classes again for thebest combinations to provide the opportunitiesfor extremely effective teaching and learning.We are lucky to have an experienced teachersuch as Mr Graham to set up and teach this newclass.

    Congratulations to Donald Thomson and JadePeretini, two Year 7 students, on theirwonderful prize at this years SouthlandScience Fair. A big thank you to Mrs Russell,our Specialist Science Teacher for herthorough preparation of the students for thisevent.
