Kapura Year 9 students and their teachers will be the ‘first cab off the rank” to depart to Wenderholme Regional Park for their 2 night-three-day camp departing 11/11/19 and returning on 13/11/19. Moana and Whenua combined camp attendees will depart school on the 13/11/19 and return on the 15/11/19 and finally Atea Y9s and their teachers will depart on the 18/11 and return on the 20/11/19. A huge THANK YOU to the Heads of Houses, PE department and other teachers who are accompanying our Year 9 students in the camp – being away from your families for two nights is a big ask. Also we appreciate the extra effort that Oliver Thorpe, Pete McIntyre and Selwyn Watford put into this camp by picking up and dropping off the kayaks and setting up and packing down the marquees, tents etc. This massive event cannot take place without the many, many hands that make work light.

In order to be more sustainable, we have reduced the number of pages, will be printing less Yearbooks and have a companion website. This companion website will have sports, clubs and other group photos, performing arts photos etc. Every one of our Year 13 students will receive a hard copy of the Yearbook which they can pick up from the main office reception from Wednesday 4 December. For all other students, there will be a limited number of hard copies available for you to pick up on a first-come-first-served basis in the new year.
