School Finishes 1.40pm We have planned to hold a version of House Day on Tuesday 1 June during periods 4 and 5. Normal Tuesday 1 June classes will take place in periods 2 and 3. It has been some years since we were last able to hold House Day , 1:00pm House Day, as last year and at the beginning of this year Covid 19 interrupted our plans and in previous years Massey Park had not been available. This will be the first time we are holding a whole Wednesday 2 June school inter-house event on the school grounds, as well as being the first time we have held a House Talent Quest, PAC, 6:30pm Day so late in the year. Such inter-house events build school and House spirit, and we hope to see students at all year levels participating with enthusiasm. Students may wear House colours to school Friday 4 June on Tuesday, but they will need to have warm clothing as the events are held on the school field. If the Samoan Cultural Dress Day weather is wet or too cold, or if the field is not up to being the venue, then we will make the call on Monday afternoon. Please check our website or Facebook page for the most up to date information. Monday 7 June Queens Birthday We held an emergency lock down practice on Wednesday. Everyone did extremely well and responded to instructions. Sue Blakely, Principal

Ngāti Tamaoho Education Strategy Ngāti Tamaoho invited students from schools in thier rohe last Friday to contribute towards their Education Strategy. Students were presented with a series of questions about what was important in their education in order to fulfil their goals and dreams. From these responses, Ngāti Tamaoho will further develop what they can offer to students which will help to fill the students' education aspirations. Our Māori Leaders Tainui Afeaki-Rickard and Shikayla Faitua represented our College and, as pictured, made valuable contributions.

House Day is back! A new format is being run this year so it is important to be aware of how the day is being run.

Most importantly for students is the decision for students to be able to wear House colours for the day. Please avoid any imagery or wording on your clothes that may cause offence or be in contravention of school rules. Please make sure to dress up warmly with several layers as it will be cold.

A decision will be made on Monday afternoon if House Day is to be cancelled. If House Day is cancelled students will need to come to school wearing the correct school uniform.

Timetable for the day: Tuesday late start Period 2: 10:00am to 11:00am Period 3: 11:05am to 12:00pm LUNCHTIME: 12:00pm to 12:40pm TUTOR TIME: 12:45pm to 1:00pm HOUSE DAY: 1:00pm to 3:20pm

Houses will be competing as a giant team in four challenges that will test their teamwork, creativity and House spirit. Three of the four challenges will be revealed on the day to see how Houses can adapt. One challenge requires the House to perform a Tik Tok music challenge and Houses should use the time before Tuesday’s House Day to get their plans sorted. Results for the day will be announced on Wednesday and points will go towards the overall House Cup.
