PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Tēnā koutou ngā whānau katoa
Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou ki runga i te kaupapa o te wāhanga tuatoru.
I am sure that you are all enjoying the fantastic Olympic Games coverage and, in particular, the history making performances of our New Zealand athletes proudly wearing the silver fern.
We have also been very proud of a number of our MIS sporting achievements in these first two weeks of the third term of 2021.
On Thursday, July 29 our girls team secured a convincing 59-7
victory in the rugby tens game against Palmerston North Intermediate Normal at Memorial Park here in Masterton. Rasharn Thompson was the outstanding performer with 6 tries and two conversions.
Our first XV boys rugby group also managed a win against PNINS with a 43-19 success. Ropati Siaosi was the player of the day for our team.
On Sunday, August 1 our Year 8 Aces team were the winners of the Vikings netball tournament played in Dannevirke.
The Footsteps dance programme will take place each Monday.
I would ask for your support in ensuring that your child has the correct PE uniform at school each day please. We do not want our kura to be a place where large numbers of students choose to opt out of learning activities.
