Big Fort Playground Rules 

For your own safety and the safety of others please look after each other and make sensible and positive choices on the playground.

Please do not:

  • climb on top of or up inside the slide.

  • pick up the bark for any reason.

  • take balls anywhere onto the fort area.

SPOOKY SENIOR DISCO

We will be holding a disco for the senior syndicate on the 30th of October. The theme is scary movies so we would love it if you at least tried to dress up in the spookiest outfit you can find. The disco will start at 7:00 and end at around 9:00. Entry will be $5, no actual tickets will be sold, your name will be written down on a sheet of paper, so as soon as you walk in, your name will be crossed off. You won’t have to worry about losing your ticket again. You can pay at the office and must be brought before Thursday 29th. If you would like, bring some extra money as we will be selling food and drinks. There will also be music and competitions with prizes. We look forward to seeing you there. Also, if you have any song suggestions please just let, Lara, Eamonn, Lily C, Alesana or Dylan know.

Thanks - The Senior Council

It's Term 4! Don't Forget to wear 
YOUR SUN HATS!  

Te Whare Manahau. 

Ruma Kākāriki is starting to finish our house of resilience. It is a project which will take most of the term. THIS week it is OUT OF BOUNDS as we are starting to paint the inside and outside. We are also repotting our seedlings and adding  garden decorations.

When it is complete, classes will be invited to have a visit but until then PLEASE RESPECT the mahi and effort Ian and our Tamariki have and are, putting into this.   Look at the progress from a sensible distance only. I know students at this school will support us by respecting People, Property and Safety.
Thank you. Mrs McCarthy.
