Week 5

Kiaora whānau!

We have had a busy week, with swimming sports, and lots of art to complete. Thank you to all Mātua who attended- we are true to our word on our starting times, so we had a few parents who were on time and a couple who came at the end of our races. It was a fantastic day, we all enjoyed it!
Thanks to Whāea Sheryll for helping run the events and taking names down for the trials for our school swimming team for Interschool's, Whāea Trina for making sure we were all on task and to Whāea Erina and Whāea Carly for being patient while we were racing :) And also to our tēina for having lots of smiles and lots of fun :)

Congrats to these people who placed 1st 2nd or 3rd in their races:
Ella Minhinnick, Mauritia Simeon, Bailey Dixon, Kahurangi Rangiuia- Lindup, Abel Johnston, Neihana Broughton, Karama Bennett, Lucy Davies, Tanisha Lawrence, Anne Amber.
(Check out our swimming photos in the photo peach slide show!)

Congratulations also to our Te Pouahi representatives to Nelson Central School Student Council-

Also thank you to our blogging team who have been arriving at Kura at 8am to put the weekly pānui together for Parents. You are very responsible for your learning, well done :)

Our Ranginui and Papatuanuku paintings are looking tau kē! Thanks also to Whāea Caroline for relieving in Te Pouahi Tekau ma Rima while Whāea Trina was on First Aid training. We completed sketches of Ina Te Paparahi, and they were hard but look fantastic!

We also have a Fundraising committee for Te Pouahi, and the main leaders are Mātua Tom and Whāea Kirsten- thank you for helping us! And to all of our Mātua who attended the hui, Kia ora koutou!

Please make sure you read all of your pānui, we need your tautoko in order to go to camp :)
