PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Kia ora whanau
Today is the last day of term three. We have had a disrupted term due to the lockdown and it has been disappointing to make so many cancellations, including inter school sport. I look forward to (hopefully) seeing sport and other activities taking place next term.
I wish to thank you all for your continued support of our school. Thanks also to my wonderful staff for their efforts this term. Onekawa School is a very special place to be!
Have a safe break; I look forward to seeing you all back on Monday 18 October.
Nga mihi nui,
Steve
Year 4 Farm Visit
Children from Room 7 and 8 visited a farm on Wednesday this week. The children had a wonderful experience and loved the day out. Thanks to Mrs Schinkel and Mrs Bound for organising the trip and to the parent helpers that attended.
