Week 7

Last week we started off with an amazing music concert Monday by Monster Music.  It was a great presentation to showcase our new drum tutor Rob with the support of his boss, Dan.  The duo had all the children rocking along and inspired many to take up the drums.  For more information about drum lessons,

The Senior Swimming Sports were held at Wharenui Pool on Tuesday with a fantastic turnout.  Races ran smoothly with great support heard from the crowd. It was great to see so many participate and strive to do their best.  A highlight of the day is always the house relays. This year the teachers team took out a controversial win. But the crowd enjoyed every moment of it.

Thursday and Friday saw the return of Torsten and our Korfball sessions.  Each class enjoyed the first of their three sessions where Torsten introduced rules as required and kept the games flowing.  I saw a few promising Korfball players emerge after their first session.  We will be looking for a group of enthusiastic and passionate Korfball players to enter the first Korfball tournament before the end of the term.  Morning Korfball training will also begin in the near future so keep an eye out for the starting dates and cost.

Plans are well underway for our Hanmer Camp. This week the gear list, dietary requirements and medical information forms went home. We require these ASAP so we can ensure a successful camp. 

To end our week I would like to acknowledge our Positive Thinkers who were presented certificates in this week's assembly. In Rm 23, Charlotte Cummings, Rm 24, Kyla Lorido, Rm 25 Basel Abdulaal, Rm 26 Jake Yu, Rm 27 Elijah Rodger and from our previous assembly Rm 24 Edrae Dalusag.
