What is a better Friday activity than finally creating our own icecream after weeks of investigating scoopability, creaminess,and flavour. Thank you to the Wonder Project and their sponsors for providing the guidance and resources needed to make the icecream challenge happen.
So while the seniors were making their own yummy flavors to share, some of the juniors put together a fresh fruit salad to add to the dessert. We had very full tummies after this addition to our lunch!.

We had a great time at the University of Otago Gymnasium with four lovely volunteer students from the Teacher's College, who kept us all running for two hours with exciting games and activities. Thank you so much, to Shannon, their lecturer who organised it all.

The end of last term was busy as always! So we had a full day of celebrating our learning! The day started with a Matariki breakfast for all the families who turned up for an early morning coffee and catch up. Then we went to the Planetarium at Tūhura Museum to watch their Matariki presentation. After that it was back to school in time for a final rehearsal of our end of term celebration. We presented to a packed room of very enthusiastic whānau our recorder recital, our Hip hop dance routine and then after an afternoon tea break our annual Wearable Arts Show. The themes this year were Black and White, Board Games and Family. Lots of effort, but great fun. and all practising one of our school values of Kia Maia - Being Brave with your learning and stepping out of your comfort zone.

Next year will be our 150th jubilee.

We are asking for expressions of interest from past or present parents and/or pupils to form a steering committee to organise this event.
We were hoping for Easter 2027, but it could also be the King's Birthday or Labour Day Weekend of 2027.
If you want to be involved, please contact Jo Wilson (Principal) by email at this address- [email protected]
I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards Jo Wilson
