This term we are hosting a disco to fundraise for our new Pasifika Dance programme here at Amesbury. We have an awesome Pacific cultural learning & performance programme - presented by Inano Dance - each Monday to teach our tamariki. In light of this new programme our disco will be pacific themed, with island music and encouraged pacific costumes.
To make this event a success, we need your help. If you’re available to help us run the disco smoothly and for our tamariki to enjoy, please complete the attached form.
