Kauri Assembly - and some special people to celebrate
We have had a huge week in Room 8 - I am predicting that there will be some tired faces in our class tomorrow afternoon.
Congratulations to Christian and Liberty, who received certificates this week.
We have a very exciting week coming up next week, with the trip to Oakley Creek, and our Year 6's going on an America's Cup trip also!
See you all tomorrow - remember your swimming togs!

Certificate winners to end our week
Our students showing their pride!
Our Ponder for today
On this week's edition of Kea Kids News, we learned that our Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, regularly reads letters sent to her by school children all over the country!
In fact, letters from young kaitiaki persuaded her to begin a new project, to protect something very special in New Zealand waters. This links to the Young Ocean Explorers work we have been doing during Inquiry time.
