Week 9, Term 4

 Hi everyone, This is the last week of term! Here are some important things to put on your calendars: Tuesday - Junior sport rotations 11.30-12.30 Wednesday - Meet 2022 classes Thursday - School closes at 12.30   Friday - No school. First day of the summer holidays. Please look in the schoolbags for an envelope containing class placement details for next year. All the children enjoyed their tennis lesson this morning. Aren't we lucky to have such amazing opportunities in our community! The focus was on ABC - air, bounce, catch. The children made ice creams and pancakes with balls, cones and rackets! Thank you for all your support and encouragement this term. We know it has been tricky in a lot of ways, but we are so proud of the way the children have developed incredible resilience and independence. Merry Christmas from the Nga Puna team.
