A great part of the week is pausing to recognize the mahi, leadership, sporting achievements and kindness displayed by our students. Share & Celebrate is our dedicated time to shine a light on the hard work happening across the kura.
We know our students are achieving amazing things beyond the school gates, too! If your child has a recent success outside of school that deserves a shout-out, please email the details directly to their whānau teacher so we can include it in our celebrations.
A special thank you to Lauren and Charlottes’s buddy whānau group for doing a fantastic job hosting this week’s Share & Celebrate!
Well done to all the ākonga recognized this week!
William: Your kaiako have noticed how amazing you are at making sure all felts have their lids on when the group has finished using them. You are often found using your own time to make sure this job is done. Ngā mihi ki a koe.
All mihi whakatau leaders: You all did a fantastic job leading us on Tuesday. You showed great mana and did us so proud. Special shout out to Nixon for pushing through despite not feeling the best!
