Fishing Rod Winner;

Bailey was so excited when his name was pulled out of the box by Mrs Bodley. After assembly he went immediately to phone his Mum the great news.
Bailey had entered a school-wide competition to win a fishing rod.
"The Minstrel" came to the school last term and entertained everyone with fishing songs, stories and dances. He left behind a lot of inspired children and the rod to be won.
Stories about fishing were written by most students and a committee of adults decided which top stories would go in the box.

Everyone cheered so loudly for you, Bailey, and we felt so pleased for you.
Here's hoping you have many hours of fishing fun with your friends and family.
Well done, Bailey.

Walk to School Bus



Lots of us walk to school with "Walking Bus" leaders who are parent members of the school. We enjoy chatting as we walk. We got pencil cases and things to go in them in assembly. There were lots of children who got to go up on stage and get one.

Summer Festival

On Thursday 11th of November, 2010, performers representing the Kapa Haka Group, Dance Group, Choir and Jump Jam Groups went down to Westfield Pakuranga to perform with other local schools as part of the Summer Festival celebrations.
