Friday 5th December

The girls toilets down the Taki/Tareha end are at risk of being locked after two days of being left in a mess (toilet paper everywhere!)

Please use the bathrooms sensibly! The cleaners are not happy!!

CULINARY ARTS GROUP - Mōrena Koutou to all the CARTS kids. If you haven't bought back your uniform already could you please bring it tomorrow in a named bag. Please make sure it has been well washed! Please bring it to Room 1 before school so I can mark you off my list. If you are helping with the leavers dinner I will catch up with you on Monday afternoon. 

Ngā mihi - Mrs Shakeshaft

Wednesday/Thursday 

We are making good progress with talent quest auditions. If you haven't auditioned yet, THURSDAY is your day. Please be organised for Thursday lunchtime with any gear that you need. Thursday's auditions will be in the PAC. 

We will hopefully be able to post the list of finalists on Friday so that you know if you are performing next Wednesday. 

Monday 8 December

Now that guitar lessons have finished for the year, all those with a hired guitar need to return this to Mrs Breeds in room 17. Thanks to those who have already done this! 

Yee- hah and Mōrena to all learners coming to our leavers dinner and dance on Thursday evening. Please bring your water bottles to refill as there will not be any cups. You will need this so you can stay hydrated while dancing. Please name it so they don't get mixed up! 

Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th December

SPORTS UNIFORMS

Please return all sports uniforms to the Library in a Named Bag.
