This week we have a leadership focus for our Year 7/8 students. We have 5 guest speakers booked in to share pearls of wisdom with us about what leadership is all about and the key attributes that we can all work on to grow our leadership skills and be a great leader. Have a chat to your child about the guest speakers and what they've learnt from them over dinner this week!
Home rooms continue to focus on team building and building class culture this week. There have been lots of fun games, activities and challenges both in and out of the class. We've been impressed with the students' maturity, co-operative skills and the budding leadership we have spied.
On Wednesday the entire team went to experience Kapa Haka with Matua Steve, our group's tutor, who comes and works with our Senior Kapa Haka each week. As of next week, keen and interested students can join our weekly Kapa Haka meetings and work towards preparing for concerts and shows in 2021. We would love your child to be part of the group!
Reminder! Reminder! Reminder! Reminder!
Next week we start swimming at Kings Swim School on Main South Road. As discussed in the 'meet the teacher' interviews. Your child needs to bring togs, towel, goggles and a swimming cap in a carry bag to take back and forward next week. We've also talked to the students about bringing a rain jacket or umbrella if the weather forecast predicts rain. We walk in all weather so being prepared will be essential.
