I hope everyone is keeping well and safe in the community at the moment. I would like to assure you that we have very sound plans in place for if or when Covid reaches our school community. You will be kept informed of every step that we have to take to ensure the safety of tamariki, staff and our wider community. If you ever have any questions about this at all, please do not hesitate to contact me at school.
School Lunches
You may have had some chat at home about our school lunches. We have changed our provider to Pozzobons Catering this year and it would be fair to say they have been a great success with the tamariki. One aspect that we particularly like is how environmentally friendly this company is. The packaging is all able to be recycled which is great for our environment.
If your child does not have the school lunch can you please ensure that you don’t send any packaged food such as potato crisps etc in their lunch box. We would prefer that they have fruit and sandwiches or wraps only please.
House Captains
Last week our Year 6 tamariki prepared speeches to apply for a House Captain or Vice Captain position. We were very proud of them all and the hard work they put into their speeches.
Our new captains are:
Whero - Captain is Blair and Vice Captain Tammy
Kōwhai - Captain is Tevita and Vice Captain is Olivia
Kākāriki - Captain is Analuti and Vice Captain is Luke
Kikoraki - Captain is Talia and Vice Captain is Ana
Ka Mihi,
