Good afternoon all,


A warm and hearty welcome from Mr. Legge the teacher in Room 9 for term 4!


I have been here for three weeks now and must say that I have enjoyed getting to know and work with everyone.


As I am sure you are all aware we are a busy time of the year with testing going on in most subjects and reports to go out shortly in week 6!


I do look forward to getting to work with everyone even more and being a part of your learning.


Mr. Legge.

Room 9's Project Pick Up

Our project is going really well with lots of rubbish being collected. Everyone has their area that they are monitoring. On Friday we had our first zero return from Room 12. A huge drop in amount of rubbish around the school is fantastic too see.

Rugby and Soccer this week

Hi guys

Just a reminder, on Wednesday we have the rugby tournament so remember your mouth guard and any other equipment you need. Also on Wednesday we have college students coming to take our class for a soccer tournament at school as part of their NCEA's so be prepared to run around and have some fun, and don't forget HELL's PIZZA lunch as well. If you want a pizza for lunch on Wednesday they are $5 and you will need to order them tomorrow. This is part of our fundraising for camp.
