Fabulous performance tonight at the North West 🎶 Music Festival. 🤩
Some of our Year 3/4 Kapa Haka group went to Kidsfirst Avonhead Kindergarten to perform this morning - lovely to see some of the kindy "graduates" show off their skills!
We are running a 'lockdown' drill to check our systems. There is nothing to worry about, we are all safe and well, it is just a drill. Kind regards, Lisa.
