The term is going to be a busy one again with calf club, group day, book fair, flower show, athletics and life education visiting for 2 days.

Our Speech Champions

Georgia and Kimberly went to the Hauraki regional speech competition. They both put on a great performance in the Year 5 an 6 group with Kimberly taking second place. Well done to both of you.

We had the Ranfurly shield here.

House Construction

After completing our bridge project we worked in pairs constructing a house. We had to have a roof that could open, at least 2 bedrooms and basic items you would find in a house. The top houses were made by Nganehu, Kimberly, Georgia and Emily.
