Music Festival
On Friday night, our Year 7 & 8 choir members took part in a wonderful performance at the Christchurch Schools' Music Festival. After a solid dress rehearsal in the morning, their dedication and enthusiasm carried through to the evening performance, where they sang beautifully.
A huge thank you to all the parents who came along to support the choir, and a special thank you to Megan C (from the Pōhutukawa Team), who has been an invaluable support for the choir over the past two years. A big thank you as well to Margot H for playing piano during our school rehearsals.
Production:
As part of our Aotearoa New Zeland Histories and Identity learning this term we have decided to run a production. The production will be a timeline of inportant historical NZ events. We are currently in the research/learning stage and then will head into creative mode in the next few weeks. Watch this space!
School Donations:
We have raised close to $500 with our Kauri sausage sizzle next week. This is just over half of what we need to fund the buses to Cass Bay.
If you are yet to contribute to school donations, now would be an amazing time! We greatly appreciate all donations you make towards donations. These go a long way towards providing a rich and diverse programme for our tamariki.
The suggested amount asked for is $150 but we are happy to take whatever you can give, you can also set up automatic payments more information can be found by visiting THIS link.
Thank you!
2025 Leadership Positions:
It is the time of year when we are asking our current Year 7 students to apply for 2025 leadership positons.
These applications need to be in by next Friday 1st November.
Year 8 Leavers Book:
We are currently working on putting together a book that will be gifted to each Year 8 at the end of the year. The children have until Next Friday, Nov 1st, to get their memory writing done and to ask for a friend and a teacher to write a memory as well. Please check in with your child as to how they are going with this and encourage them to get their memory written in time. They also need to send to Nicky a photo of them as a 5 year old—huge thanks to the 40 people who have already sent in photos.
