Haere Ra Mr O'Dowda










Mr O'D Day was full of crazy antics and a

ll his favourite games, including the best water fight ever!

He entertained us with an impromptu ribbon dance, and we gave him the book that we had made for him. This was filled with our (stunningly honest) descriptive reflections of him as our Principal.

We will miss him a lot.

The Big Fat Gorilla (and Mr O' D)











We had a great time last week, when Mr O'D came in to teach us one of his favourite games. It's now our favourite game!
Its all about a bit fat Gorilla, down in the jungle...

White Pine Bush


Whole School Tramp, White Pine Bush.
Wednesday, March 9th 2011.

Leadership was the focus of our recent day trip to White Pine Bush. The students learnt many new things about the New Zealand bush and responded with wonderment and awe to the ancient Kahikatea (White Pine) they discovered there.

Our seniors worked together to identify possible hazards along the way, in preparation for designing their own risk management plan. They really did us proud, ably leading us through the whole experience.
Thanks, seniors!
