This morning’s whānau time was extra special as we farewelled Shirley Mooney, lovingly known as ‘Oma’. Shirley will be leaving us at the end of Term 3, but with so much happening in our Kura we wanted to make sure Shirley has a proper farewell. We will all miss you dearly Oma, thank you for all your support, your kindness, your caring nature and above all thank you for your effort and Mahi that you have put in whilst being part of our Kura.

Tot ziens, until we meet each other again. 🩷

"Great dancers are not great because of their technique; they are great because of their passion." — Martha Graham 💃🕺

Watching our tamariki practice their dances is such an honour, we cannot wait to share this honour with everyone during their performances.

Don't forget to get your tickets to our production "Through the Decades". You can purchase these for $5 per ticket, from the school office. We would love to see you there! 🌟

We are all kids at heart, and that was evident when these Ezy Gliders came out. Some of our Kaiako and Kaimahi quality tested these ride-ons, and it's safe to say they are a hit! Tamariki enjoyed them as well. 🤩

It has been another busy term here at Te Puni; we can't believe how fast time is flying!

Tamariki and Kaiako are preparing and practising for our production "Through the Decades" that will be performed at the end of this term. Everyone is doing an amazing job, and we cannot wait to showcase all the hard work that has gone into our production.

Last Friday we held our Termly Whakamihi Ceremony. This is a special time for us to welcome our new students and their whānau into our Te Puni whānau. Our tamariki sang strongly and proudly, to welcome our new students.

Tēnā koutou katoa ki ngā tauira hou.

Winter has definitely shown up for today 🥶

We have had a wonderful start to Term 3 at Te Puni. It's been wonderful to see tamariki are well rested and ready to take on the term!
