We have managed to keep ourselves pretty busy so far, and looking at the calendar, Term 3 we won’t be stopping until the end of the term! School Choir Performance The seniors in particular will be busy with the Greerton Village Sports Baycourt Theatre, Tauranga exchange, Snow Camp and Winter Sports. Thursday 29 August, 7.00pm Maths-a-thon We are also getting ready of our “Art Exhibition” on Wednesday September Tuesday 3 September 18th. Our aim for this afternoon is to have an “Open Class” from 5:00pm to 5:30pm for parents to come in and see what is going on in their child’s Aongatete Hell’s Gate Trip classroom and then the hall will be open from 5:30pm for you to enjoy some Thursday 5 September of their wonderful art work. BOT Meeting Monday 9 September Hopefully there has been lots of extra maths going on at home in readiness for our Maths-a-thon next week - Wednesday 3rd September. We have had Greerton Village Sports Exchange quite a few children coming in to ask for a “harder sheet” which is great to Thursday 12 September see. Open Classes 5:00pm Art Exhibition 5.30pm Our dress-up day last week was a lot of fun with the majority of our children Wednesday 18 September and staff taking part in support of our choir.
