Team 4 Reading Champions

In Team 4, Mr  Samuels and I have an amazing group of learners who we try and make time to read with everyday. 
There are 10 awesome readers in our group reading fat various levels. 

We have a sticker chart system and each reader has their very own folder where we keep a track of every book they have read and when completed they get to pick a sticker to place next to the book that they have read.
Once each reader has reached the goal of 10 stickers (10 books) they get to pick from the prize bag!!! 

Our kids who reached their first goal of 10 books were very excited to pick from the prize bag today and we are extremely proud of them.

They were amazing!! 
Thank you for your dedication and all your aroha to our tamariki. 

Mr Wright & The Senior Choir

   

 Our very own Mr Wright using his unique talents as a musician and singer to help form a choir group made up of Y7 and Y8 students from Team 5.

In the afternoons Mr Wright runs a session with the choir then they head over to the senior block to have a combined singing practise with the rest of their senior peers. John and Sione  who are our guitarists have been fortunate enough to have guitar lessons with Mr Wright and have absolutely enjoyed and benefited from this.

We are so proud and blessed to have you share your talents with our tamariki Mr Wright the kids all think you have an amazing voice! and so do we!! Kia Ora Matua Roni.

Support Staff Week "Celebrating The Wins"

This month has been a blessing for our very own Child Support Staff with our Pay Equity Settlement and we wanted "celebrate the wins" with the rest of our staff whanau at Pt England School. We put on quite a spread that day and were surprised with another morning tea on Friday provided by our generous teachers, Board of Trustees and our amazing principal Mr Burt! 
Even before the changes that have taken place we as  Support Staff members at Pt England School have always been treated equally and are constantly thanked and reminded that we are appreciated. I am thankful to be a part of an amazing group of human beings. "WE ARE HAPPY, WE ARE THANKFUL, WE ARE FAMILY"
