📊 Attendance Update – Week 10
As expected in the final week of school, attendance was slightly lower as many whānau began their holiday plans. Finishing the year at 80% attendance is still something to be proud of 👏

A big congratulations to Hiringa 9, Hiringa 11, and Hiringa 12, who topped our final week with an impressive 88% attendance 🎉

Thank you to our Kingsford community for your ongoing support throughout the year 🤍 Please enjoy the school holidays and take note of the important dates on the final page of the newsletter 🖤

All the very best to those who are leaving Kingsford, and to those returning — we will see you in 2026 👋❤️
