Current Happenings at IPS
We have had an exciting start to Term 4 with lots happening. Some of the students have been involved in AWE Swimming at the Kaweroa Pools, learning a variety of swimming skills and techniques.
We have also had students involved in Tennis development, with very positive reports back from the tutor and students.
Our gardening crew have been busy planting potatoes, cabbages, cucumbers, pumpkins (giant and regular), courgettes, radishes and carrots. We are looking forward to seeing these grow over the next few weeks.
Our classes are getting ready for our Mini Market Gala next Friday . Please see below for further details.
Many thanks to the new students, staff and families who came to our Powhiri on Tuesday - it is nice to formally welcome you all into our IPS family.
The Powhiri was followed by presentations to students who achieved awards in both Cross Country and Speech events. Congratulations to all.
Farewell Mrs Helen Carswell
