Te Kauru Camp - Auckland 2018

A huge TE KAURU thank you to all our wonderful kids, parents and staff who made our Auckland Camp such a wonderful trip to remember!

The students displayed our school values everywhere we went and their behavior was outstanding. Many positive comments were received from staff and other visitors at each of the attractions we visited. They were an absolute pleasure!

Our parents ensured the students were well cared for with delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners and wonderful supervision and encouragement at the marae and each of the attractions. Without such excellent parental support, camps like this would not be possible.

Thank you also to our whanau who stayed at home. We appreciate the fundraising effort that was needed to get the students to camp and the organisation to ensure each student was prepared for the week.

Our camp was a huge success thanks to our great school community.

Nga mihi,
Deb, Ness, Ang and Sharls

Oruaiti School Pet Day

In the last week of Term 3 we ventured out to Oruaiti School to celebrate their Pet Day and Mini Gala. The day started with the 'lambs'. They were led around, had a drinking race and even got dressed up (our favourite is the cutie above). It was a wonderful show.

Next we were able to take a look in the classrooms at all the wonderful exhibitions that the Oruaiti students had created. They were very impressive.

Finally we were able to feast upon the delicious food on sale in the hall! What a great finish to a wonderful day.

The added bonus was the fantastic senior playground at Oruaiti. It gave us lots of ideas as to what we would like in our playground.

Thank you Oruaiti School, we hope to come back next year!
