Merry Christmas - Final blog for 2021

Morena Room 15 whānau,

Thank you for supporting your children to have such a positive final week of the school year. They were amazing during the duathlon on Monday, despite it raining and not being the best conditions. Our prizegiving went really well, Click here if you would like to watch it. Please excuse the error I made, the last 2 awards I gave out were for academic excellence, not diligence. It was extremely difficult to choose the recipients of the awards as all the kids had a terrific year and I am proud of every single one of them. 

















Mr McMillan has filled his prize cupboard up for the 2022 reading logs. Your child will be given a hard copy today, but I will also attach a digital copy below. 



Once again, thank you for a fantastic year. I know your children will all be amazing seniors. 

Nga mihi, 

Sophie Bowie.

Good morning on this beautiful summer day.  It is hard to think that there are only three more weeks left of the school year.  Let's make these the three best ones we've had, by being organised, being kind and having a big dollop of patience. 𝅵؜𝅴 Kahikatea is looking forward to our Big Day In on Monday 6 December.  Unfortunately with Covid restrictions, we are unable to invite parents to join us.  Please keep a lookout for a notice which will be sent home this week outlining all the details. Looking back at what was going on this time last year and it was jam packed with lots of activity - preparing for the curtain going up for Peter Pan, Ahurei, student Celebration Day at school, Christmas Parade, students competed in inter-school athletics. Unfortunately many activities have had to be cancelled this year due to COVID and many more will also need to be cancelled. Presently we are looking at how our end of year prizegiving and Mass is going to look. Plans will need to fit acc
