Jumping June
Kia ora e te whānau,

We will be participating in Jumping June on Friday 19th June, alongside Whānau Day. More information will come in the next two weeks.

In the mean time, please use the link below to create your child's fundraising page. All money goes towards the Heart Foundation - "Our purpose: to stop all people in New Zealand dying prematurely from heart disease and enable people with heart disease to live full lives."

We will receive skipping ropes this coming week and we will start training asap!

Pink Shirt Day
Tomorrow

07/05/2026

Next Week Friday is Pink Shirt Day. If you're child can wear pink next Friday we'd love to see it. We will be raising money for the Pink Shirt Movement so please send a gold coin donation through to us or look out for options on Kindo from next Monday. We have a Pōwhiri for James Cook School in the morning, so it would be wonderful if students could pack their uniform in their bags too please.
