Happy last Friday of the term everyone. Isn\u2019t that a crazy thought? Lots on at the moment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strike in Schools:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Not that kind of Strike! They are a percussion group that came and performed for us on Wednesday. Check out the pics above or\u00a0video here<\/a>. Hopefully it inspired our kids to get into a bit of drumming or maybe sign up for Epic lessons with Oscar next term.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whakawhetai to the wh\u0101nau who came and shared a kai and a korero last night at our first Te Wh\u0101nau M\u0101ori hui of the year last night. A great chance to share and reflect on our journey in Te Ao M\u0101ori so far and where we wish to head. A Facebook Group<\/a> has been set up if you want to keep up with the p\u0101nui in this space.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bike Safety for Year 5\/6:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a couple of students who were unable to ride a bike confidently at the start of the week that were able to by the end of the week – Love that growth! The Year 6\u2019s had a fab day out yesterday as you can see from the pics above cruising around the streets, the Esplanade and down by the river with Cameron and the team. Thank you to the parents who helped transport children and bikes to or from the venue and also to Erin and Phil from Sport Manawat\u016b for their leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to those of you who purchased pool keys to use for the swimming season. If you could please arrange to return these to the office, we would appreciate this.
