Today we had a very special visitor to our school, Minister Chris Hipkins who made an exciting announcement for our school.
Please read the letter below to find out what it was.

Building Announcement 2020.docx.pdf

Hi Year 8 parents
Change in plans again, please spread the word.
Despite our best hopes, the weather is not cooperating with us. Instead, we have organised to take the Year 8’s to the YMCA gymnasium for inside fun activities with Beachy and his team today. We will then return back to school at 3pm ready for you to pick them up.
We will not be staying overnight tonight but we will be hopeful for tomorrow for Castlepoint etc. (If not we will have other activities for them to do.)
Children will leave their gear here at school in a locked classroom.
We appreciate all your support with these changes.
Friday looks great for Kayaking!
