Some fantastic action shots of our 7s teams from their comp on Wednesday. 🏉

Thank you Whiti Ora Tairawhiti for these awesome pics!👌

Another fun-filled day for our MKids!

Pjs and sweet treats! Our staff also had a sugar hit too, with hot chocolate and marshmallows!😋

Thank you sooo very much for supporting our Shop Day and for your ataahua koha of Winter pjs and woollies!

We really do have the most generous community.

Happy FriYAY whānau and enjoy your weekend.

Morena koutou.

Today we get to stay in our pjs all day, it's going to be the biggest Pyjama Party ever!

See you soon MKids and don't forget it's our Shop Day too.

💙💚

We were treated to a musical and drama filled afternoon put on by some of our Year 6 MKids who had been part of a 3 day Chamber Music New Zealand workshop.

Many of our tamariki had never played an instrument before or performed in front of an audience. They should be very proud of what they have achieved in such a small amount of time.

Thank you to Cathy & Justin from CMNZ for sharing your expertise and talents. Our MKids loved it, starting out shyly on day one to performing to an audience of around 400, all thanks to your passion for creativity.🙌

Nga mihi to our fabulous teacher aides Kym & Lisa for all of your support too. We loved how you both got so involved over the 3 days and you even graced the stage yourselves!👏👏

Finally to our fabulous MKids who used all of their REACH Values over these last 3 days. You all showed true resilience by pushing yourselves out of your comfort zones and we are incredibly Mangapapa Proud!💙💚

"Music and drama give children the ultimate stage to explore, build confidence, and express themselves. They transform imagination into lifelong skills."🎶🎭

Just a reminder that Vanessa our Public Health Nurse will be at school from 2pm every Thursday, so yes she will be in tomorrow. A fantastic opportunity for our whānau.

Don't forget it's going to be a Pyjama Party this Friday, so it'll be pyjamas all day! Also our Mangapapa "famous" Shop Day makes a return this Friday too!

Keep those donations of Winter woollies and pjs coming in too whānau. There are going to be some very happy tamariki who will benefit from your manaakitanga.

Right that's a lot of sharing from us today, enjoy your evening whānau!💙💚

What an epic day for our boys and girls at the Interschool Rugby 7s competition. 🏉☀️🏉

Mr Jean-Louis and Mr Adams are so incredibly proud of you all. You gave it everything and although you have left the comp a bit bloodied, battered and bruised, it just goes to show how much effort you and your opponents put in! Love it! 💪💪

💙A mighty congratulations to our girls for bringing home second placing overall. 🥈

Such a fantastic opportunity for many of our year 6 MKids provided by Cathy & Justin from Chamber Music New Zealand (CMNZ). Three days of creativity, music, dance and drama, with our tamariki really stretching themselves to get out of their comfort zones.🙌
