Welcome Back to Term 4!
It has been lovely having all the students back at kura! Just a few quick reminders as we start the new term:
During Term 4, all students are expected to wear a hat during break times and outdoor activities. Please make sure your child brings a hat to school every day.
Term dates have been for Term 4. Any additions or changes to these dates will be communicated via Skool Loop.
