The end of another year!!!

Hi there my friends!!!
Wow what a busy last week... I am so proud of all your efforts at the final asessmebly the senior song and kapahaka was excellent. Many parents and board members spoke to me and Mrs T afterwards to say how impressed they were. It is always sad to see the Yr 6 students leave us and I hope this years Yr 5's are looking forward to their roles and responsibilities next year! Me and my whanau are going to be hard at work at the crib at Karitane!!! Lots of painting, gibbing, and general building going on!!! Have a wonderful Christmas and be safe!!! Lots of love Miss C

It's great to be teaching you again!

Hi there Tawa poppits

Well an exciting first day!

We had Kaylee and Larissa over for the day today and Max also broke his pinky finger! Blame the McDonalds playground for that one. Poor kid now can't do a heck of a lot with him having a right hand all splintered up I have a feeling he is going to get grumpy with it very soon. Hope you are all having a great break and keeping up with the reading munchkins!!!! I'll post next time from Dunedin.... Miss C

I have added a video bar..... watch this it will make you smile!!

How exciting its the last day of school tomorrow. I hope you and your whanau enjoying checking out your portfolios everyone has worked very hard on them. Remember to bring them back in week one Term 4.... special treat for those kids who remember.

Hmmm what do you have planned for holidays?

Miss C is going to be in Gore with Ryan and Max for the first week and I get a break with NO children for the last week WAHOO!!!!

Mrs Miller is really looking forward to teaching you all for the first three weeks of next term and Miss C will still be there working hard on some planning stuff for the future and of course report writing time!!!!

I will add to this during the holidays and encourage you all to add comments letting me know all the exciting things you get up to!!!!

BE SAFE these holidays..... remember if you are near water to have an adult with you..... keep up with your reading and parents get your kids to tell you the time from digital and analogue clocks to keep their practice up!!
