End of Term 1.


Well P2, what a busy term we have had!  I am very proud of you all.  The effort you have put into your work, the respect you have shown each other and the way you have all really grown as individuals.  Well done everyone.
The end of the term was extremely busy, we had Norm Hewitt visit our school to talk to us about his work with the SPCA and also the importance of family and looking after every member of our family and helping them to feel loved and safe.  He was such an inspiring and entertaining speaker and I know we all learnt a lot from his visit.

We have so many keen leaders in our class and this was shown when 5 people got up to speak in front of the class to be voted for our class councillors.  Congratulations to Koyuki and Alex V who were voted as our two councillors for 2015.  It was an extremely close vote so I have given leadership roles to our other three candidates also.  Joel is the student in charge of Class Dojo, Mikaela is the student in charge of house points and Keaton is our P2 Tech Wizard.
Congratulations to you all.





One of my favourite moments from Term 1 was when our entire learning centre stood up without being instructed and performed the Haka for the teachers of Puarenga at the end of term.  You have no idea how much that meant to us.  The enjoyment you have for learning and the aroha you have for the Puarenga whanau was evident in the passion and strength of your haka.  Ka pai!


 I am looking forward to another exciting and fun filled term in Term 2.  Our focus is the Science Fair, where every student will be presenting a scientific investigation. 

Well done to all those who got involved in new and exciting activities in Term 1.  Make sure you keep your eyes and ears peeled for all the exciting opportunities in Term 2.  Getting involved is what Intermediate School is all about!
