What an awesome day we had yesterday at our cross country! A huge shoutout to all our tamariki for the amazing effort and resilience they showed—every single one gave it a go, and we saw some great running, smiling faces, and awesome sportsmanship. Even with 22% of our school away, the house chants were still loud, proud, and full of energy! The vibe was fun, supportive, and full of Matangi spirit.

We’re so proud of everyone who took part—ka pai, tamariki mā!

Thank you parents for the supporting the school staff to attend the NZEI meeting in the afternoon.  It was very appreciated that the team could all be there together.

One last thing.  I want to welcome Sarah Godsall back to school.  We have missed her and we are so pleased to have her back as our amazing Deputy Principal.
