PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

Dear Parents

25 days and 4 hours till Christmas! 13 days of school left for 2024.

This morning at school waiata the children were singing the songs that are part of the end of year school liturgy. This is one of three key events for the school end of year.

Firstly we have the Kiwi team Christmas Nativity play. The Year 0-2 children have been practising daily the songs for the play. I am sure parents of these children will be delighted and very proud when they get to see their children perform.

On Tuesday 10 December we will have our Year 6 Graduation Mass beginning at 6:30pm. All school families are welcome to come to this Mass.

Friday 13 December, 11am, we have our final hurrah for the year. The end of year liturgy. All whanau are welcome to come along for this very special school event. All our school children are involved in this event. It is followed by the end of year school picnic.

Whanau are invited to school for lunch about 12 noon, on the bottom field. There will be food trucks that you can purchase your family lunch from. Children can also bring money to purchase lunch. They will be responsible for the money. Friday we end the school day as normal at 2:50pm.

Wednesday 18 December is the final day for the year. The school closes at 1:00 pm. Please ensure you have made arrangements for your children to be collected at this time.
