Welcome Back to Term 2 Whanau

Kia Ora Koutou

I hope everyone has had an awesome two week break. I am sure the students have all recharged their batteries and are ready to rock n roll for another term. This term will be a busy one. With most of our assessments completed and learning groups established, it is time to get some serious mahi done. We pride ourselves in Room 20 to be the best, nothing more and nothing less and with this motto will give everything 100 percent effort and commitment. Term 1 was all about establishing a team environment and culture and to help everyone paddle in unison. We have established a solid unit and with this in mind, it is time to work together for a common cause and focus. To achieve and be better then we were the day before. It is all about making small steps. As long as those steps are going forward and not backwards. Whanau I welcome you on board and with you continued support, another successful term beckons. 

Final Week Week 11

Kia Ora Whanau

We are now into the final week of the term. I have thoroughly enjoyed this term, knowing that there is plenty of work to do within the near future. A huge thanks to those parents that I have made contact with via phone contact, text or personally (Kanohi ki te Kanohi). I am looking forward to sitting down with the rest of you to discuss your childs progress this week. This term has been about fostering relationships and building a team that will work well together and most importantly for each other. Learning will excel if everyone is on the same kaupapa. There cannot be a chink within our armour. I look forward to our final week of term 1. Remember my door is always open.
