Right Choice Day

What a great day we had on Friday to finish off our term.  We started the day with a teacher swap, movie and then finished the day with "right choice" assembly. We celebrated our students that are constantly living above the line and doing the right thing.

Kai pai to these students who were selected from Whetu Piata!




Have a great holiday everyone, we are looking forward to seeing you in two weeks!
