Western Heights Primary Rotorua

WOW! What an amazing performance from our Show Quest team last night!!

Our tamariki performed with so much joy, enthusiasm and energy! Everyone was amazing! As a Kura we are so proud of each and every one of them.

It’s taken so much work to get to this point, practices, costumes, music, makeup, hair, dress rehearsals and so much more goes on behind the scenes to prepare.

A great big CONGRATULATIONS and thank you to Whaea Tyla and your amazing team of helpers. You’ve provided our tamariki with a life-long memory they will treasure!

Our team came 2nd in their division, beating a few local intermediates as well as taking out awards for lighting, arts and others!! Our student reps spoke from the heart and represented the essence of our kura.

The team will perform one more time for our kura and whanau on Wednesday 24 at 11:30 in the KPMSC.

Kia ora whanau!

A message from our ShowQuest Team

Here is the link for the livestream for our whanau that are unable to make it over.

For pick up after the show, there will be a designated, signed place for you to wait and then be taken by the ShowQuest staff to get your tamariki. This will be explained by the MC at the start of the show.
Please do not leave during the show to get your child as we are unable to release them.

Our kids have been incredible today and had a wonderful dress rehearsal. Whaea Tyla even shed tears of pride as they practiced 🥹

Lets bring the roof down tonight with applaud and cheers for these mini superstars!
