Manulua Whanau Hui THIS MONDAY!!

Mihi nui ki a koutou,

We would like to invite you to attend our first-ever Manulua Whanau Hui.  This will take place in the Clendon Park Staffroom at 5.30pm on Monday, 13 February.  We envisage the evening will not go for more than an hour and it will be a very informal gathering.

We will be having a free sausage sizzle at 5.00pm, so be on time if you want to get a sausage!  J

This is a great chance for us to get to meet you and find out more about you and your family, and also for you to meet the Manulua teachers and find out a bit more about us.

Our principal, Sue Dawson, will also be speaking at this hui.

Items we will be covering will include:

- Looking at opportunities for whanau to come in and work with our students, whether it be for sport, cultural events, or anything else;
- Discussing the topics we will be covering this year;
- Trips this year (including our Year 8 trip to Rotorua);
- Homework;
- Questions from whanau;
- And much more!

We look forward to seeing you there!

In the last 2 weeks room 9 have been leaning how to play cricket. We have been learning how catch and hit the ball. We also had the opportunity to play other classes to put what we learned in to action room 9 had lots of fun.
Thank you Counties Manukau Cricket.

Awesome first week back at school. We had the opportunity to read with our teina (room 17). Our task was to buddy up with a junior student and read with them. We had to ask questions to the juniors to test them on their listening skills.
