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"

Sticking to what we know!


   
 Home schooling is very interesting for both my kids and I.
I have always known that "teachers" are the true champions when it comes to multi-tasking but to do it with constant praise and reassurance is next level.
Cullai loves the fact that he gets to watch his class mates eat breakfast during their class hangouts in the morning.
Jane loves that she gets time to finish things off properly without any distractions or her being a distraction.
I still do the "eyes on me", at first the kids thought it was funny but I think it's not the same without a whole classroom full of kids to repeat after me. We are still sticking to what we know and always trying to follow the Pt England Way even at home.

Miss Timmi Gets Fit!


This morning I got managed to get up extra early to "Get Fit"!!

It was a beautiful morning for a walk and I ended up walking 10kms starting from Glendowie through to St Helliers down around Glen Innes and all the way back home. I have had a lot of time during this lock down to go for long walks and try out some YouTube workouts.

Better Living Everyone! Get Fit! Stay Safe!
