Kahikatea Year 5 & 6 students are looking at Kataitanga for inquiry – Taking a role in the protection of resources in Aotearoa. As part of their learning inquiry, they are having a look at tiny homes and the lower impact on the environment that these can provide. Tiny by Taylor will be at school on Thursday 10th June with the kids from 2-3pm. They would like to stay on and be available to answer any questions you may also have. If you would like to check out a tiny home and discuss this with an expert, come along to school from 3-3.30pm.

Staff retirement

Hi everyone
It is with sad news for us and happy news for her, that Carol Fergusson our Office Manager has decided that she is going to retire and will be finishing at the beginning of next term. Carol is an incredible asset to our school office and staff team and will be missed.
Carol is going to enjoy spending more time being able to relax, enjoy her hobbies eg: cooking, gardening, travelling and most of all be a grandmother and wife.
As a result, we will be advertising her position in the Wairarapa Times Age as Office Manager with Finance and HR responsibilities.
If you know anyone who has these essential finance, HR and administration skills then you could bring this position to their attention.

Thanks
Patrice O’Connor
