Our school leaders had the opportunity to go on this fantastic camp for  free.  They went on Tuesday the 5th  and returned back on the 7th of March.  It was a full on camp where our school leaders engaged in many fantastic experiences.  The activities there gave the students ample opportunities to bond with each other and developed great leadership skills.  The students also learned to embrace the beauty of nature, the importance of a healthy marine life and why there are marine reserves all around New Zealand.  We would like to thank BLAKE Explorers for the awesome opportunity and making this camp free of charge for our wonderful leaders.

Greetings to you all and welcome to all the parents and the whanau of room 6 tamariki. We are embarking this academic year with great enthusiasm as we are striving for success and taking all challenges with a positive mindset.   Whenever we encounter challenges on our academic journey this year, here are some of our favourite phrases, ” I will try”, “I can do it”, “It is still possible”, “I can give it a go” and”The best is still yet to come”.  We do understand that it will take time for us to instill this idea as well as maintaining it throughout the year.  TOGETHER WE CAN DO IT!

Happiness will boost our self-esteem and make us proud of who we are. A wise clown once told me “ Oua pelu, tu’u faka-makatu’u” which means’ never fold, stand tall and be strong’. Hopefully, our movie can put a smile on your face. Enjoy!
