Congratulations to all of the children who received the Sacrament of the Eucharist on Sunday. It was a beautiful celebration. Thanks to Mrs Dooley, Mr & Mrs Wylie, Mrs Marsh, Fr Wayne and everyone who supported the children in some way. Our prayers and blessings to all of the children.

This week we have had more visitors to our school keen to learn more about our Engaging Learning Spaces. On Monday Jasen Booton, a leader for Learning and Innovation at the Riverside Academy in Warwickshire, England came to visit. He found our school "vibrant and inspiring" and was impressed with the levels of engagement for our students. One of his highlights was the junior performance for the Kapahaka Festival.
Our second group of visitors were from St Joseph's in Temuka. We welcomed Bernie Leonard the principal, Suellen Robb Yr 7/8 teacher and Ange Hyde Yr 5/6 teacher. They took heaps of photos of displays, interviewed the children and took notes about the way forward for their school.
