Next week our Year 4-6 students will begin their William Pike Challenge journey!
This programme will push our students to achieve their goals, build resilience and confidence, create strong connections with their peers, our community, and our local environment.
Thank you to REAP Central Plateau Taupō, for supporting Mihi School to be part of this!

The William Pike Challenge is an exciting Education Outside the Cla...

At our assembly this week we were able to acknowledge a number of our students for their fantastic mahi.
We are lucky enough to have the support of Kindness Collective Foundation, Contact Energy and Duffy Books in Homes who have provided funding, books and amazing Lego prizes to celebrate what our Mihi students have achieved!

Winter sports are in full swing now and our Mihi kids were fully involved this week!
Malcolm and Alfie represented Mihi in a combined schools rugby team competing for the Fell Cup (an annual Reporoa Valley competition that has been revived this year). They tackled and ran hard and had a great day with new friends!
Then last night was Friday night hockey in Taupō. Our Reporoa Valley Geysers (year 2-4) did amazingly well against Hilltop - everyone got involved and I’m noting the score as 1-1 even though we scored our goal in the opposition goal - whoops!
The Reporoa Valley Steamers (year 5-6) played amazingly as a team and notched up their first win beating Wairakei 2-1 and successfully defending 11 PCs just before full time! (The ref kept count!)
They all earnt the hot chips last night!

Were you at the reunion?
Did you see the photos and letters our students wrote to past students for the Mihi School 70th Reunion?
Have a look at the photos they chose and the letters they wrote to the students in the photo - can you spot yourself?
If you do spot yourself, write back - we'd love to hear from you!

Where have the first two weeks of term 2 gone!
We have been super busy with trips to Lava Glass to see Donovan Bixley Author/Illustrator and his new exhibition, the Taupō Museum to look at the Recycle-o-Saurus exhibition, we ran in the Rotorua Mini-Marathon, played our first Friday night hockey games as Reporoa Valley with students from Reporoa Primary School and Lake Rerewhakaaitu School and to top it all off hosted past students, whānau and staff for our Mihi School 70th Reunion!

Our 70th reunion is fast approaching and our current students are getting excited to meet past students!
It’s going to be a great weekend!

So it seems the weather is not looking that great for tomorrow -
but we are tough in Reporoa and we have jobs that need to get done!
So wrap up warm and join us in the gardens as we get ready for our upcoming reunion.
