POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR FOR LEARNING
RESPECT
We will try to solve our own problems.
Students quite often seek out a teacher before trying to work on the problem themselves. Teachers are giving students suggestions about how they can calmly discuss any problems they are having in their games.

Funding Success!
Hopefully if all goes according to plan these will be seen in Term 4. There are just one or two little issues to deal with first.
PTA update
In Term 4 they will be doing a Christmas raffle.
The PTA would like to thank our community for their efforts with our fundraising ventures this year so far. It is wonderful to see the children benefitting from funds raised.
Wonder Project - Power Challenge
With the assistance of our fantastic Wonder Project Ambassador, Simon McLoughlin, Papakura are completing a Power Challenge this term. Simon gives up his time to support the school which we really appreciate.
