Be the Hands, Heart and Voice of Jesus

What our world needs more than anything is love and God’s love can be shown to others through us. What are some ways you can show God’s love to your friends here at school and to your family at home.

• Watch the story of 'The Good Samaritan' and then talk about how God’s love was shown in this story.

What you do for others you are actually doing for Jesus. Think of some ways you can use your hands to be of service here at school every day and in your home with your whanau.

Listen to or watch the story of Jesus Washes the Disciples Feet. John 13:1-17

The items currently available for purchase are:

We are now 'phasing in' our new school uniform over the next 2 years. This means for the next 2 years your child can wear the current school uniform or the new school uniform.

We do ask that by the start of the school year 2024 all students be dressed in the full new school uniform.
