Kia ora koutou,
What a fantastic start to Term 4 Pōhutukawa has had! The students have transitioned well into the new term, are working hard and consistently demonstrating the Beckenham Kete Values.
As we are now in Term 4, a reminder that students are expected to wear their school hats whenever they are outside. These must be plain red or plain black, wide-brimmed or bucket hats. We also have sunscreen available in the hub for students to apply.
Term 4 is a busy one, with lots of exciting things happening! Here is a list of events coming up over the next few weeks.
Week Two
Athletics Day (Friday)
Week Three
Labour Day – no school (Monday)
Pōhutukawa Kapa Haka performance at Celebration Assembly (Friday, 9:45 am)
Jump Jam Competition Team – Nationals performance (Saturday)
Week Four
South Zones Athletics (Monday)
Choir Music Festival rehearsal (Friday)
On Wednesday, we held two athletics events: the middle-distance event at school and the long jump at Hillview School. Pōhutukawa students did exceptionally well, and they should be very proud of their efforts!
In class, students have been completing a range of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) activities. They have really enjoyed these tasks, and it has been fantastic to see them collaborating, sharing ideas and letting their creativity shine.
Over the weekend, some of our students participated in the Crater Rim Trail Run. Well done to everyone who took part!
