Well done to our Most Improved Maths-Whizz students for 2019!

Last week Room Kowhai had their end of year sleepover at school. We would like to thank all our parents who helped with the baking and fruit.

We would like to thank Diane and John Coleman from Treeline Native Nursery for their kind donation of totara trees for our year 8 leavers. At Prizegiving, on Tuesday each Year 8 received a totara tree. Diane and John provided these trees again this year.

Congratulations to past pupil, Oliver Croucher, who has been selected as Reserve for the NZ vs AUS Trans-Tasman Young Rider Test at the Larsens Showjumping Championships being held in Gisborne in January 2020.
