The PREP market day proved very popular with the students and the students were really motivated to succeed. There was so much interest in the day that the number of students away from school on the day was at an all time low! Nothing like authentic learning to motivate and engage students.
In our last two weeks there are a lot of activities.
Our Year 7 & 8's have their end of year social (3 Dec). This is always a great night to celebrate.
Our Bluestone Music Christmas Roadshow is performing at a variety of retirement Homes and Kindergartens. The skills learned and the enthusiasm to perform never fails to amaze me. Musical performances are also taking place for Rotary (Dec 16) and for the Christmas Float Parade (Sat 5 Dec), and at the Bay. We will hold a musical talent quest on Tuesday 8 December.
Celebration Journals will be sent home (Wed 2 Dec) and will show you what your child has achieved over this year. Take time to discuss the contents with your child. I hope they are proud of their efforts.
Our athletes will get to perform at the SC Primary Schools Athletics Champs (Tue 1 Dec). Those students who reach this level have shown a great attitude and determination. We wish them well.
Our sport teams will have their photos taken on Monday 7 December after school. Students involved will be given a free laminated photo before the end of the school year.
We will hold our annual pool party at Maori Park on Thursday 10 December. The Home and School will cook free sausages for the students for lunch.
Our Prize Giving will be held at the TBHS Hall on Monday 14 Dec starting at 7pm. We will have a VERY special guest who will present a wonderful role model for the students to aspire to.
