Term 4 Week 4 'Stars of the Week'

Thank you for having your child at school early this morning so that we could be seated ready for 9am Mass. I am very proud of the children as they showed reverence and behaved beautifully during Mass. We then went straight into production practice, and again the Room 13 children set a great example. I am impressed with how well they have learnt their lines, their moves, and the songs. The performance is going to be amazing - have you got your tickets?

This week everyone is a 'Star of the Week'. Ka pai, Ruma 13.




Today Bess had her 8th birthday. We sang 'Happy Birthday' to her and wished her all the best.






Remember our School Fair is on Sunday, starting at 12md. Our wonderful Parent Council has done an amazing job of preparing for this event. Please support them - and pray for fine weather. See you there.

Tu meke, Harrison.



Today we wore mufti and donated a gold coin for the Fair.

It was boiling outside I was sweating so bad. The grass was brown and orange. Wil
