Mōrena,
Unfortunately the walkway between Portland street and Holmburn street is blocked this morning. Over night a car was stolen and abandoned in the alleyway. The owners of the vehicle have been notified and have been in contact with the police who will be coming to investigate. At this stage the vehicle is still in the walkway which will make it difficult to access the school from this direction. If you can, plan to avoid this area. Thanks

Manners, Milestones, and Masterful Acting!
Kia ora Mrs Ioane and the Kōtuku team for focusing on manners at today’s assembly. The learners in Room 5 did an excellent job modelling how to politely ask Mrs Leggett and Mr Taylor for help through some fun skits.
Congratulations to all of our deserved award winners this week - Kei runga noa atu koutou!
Special mention to Room 8 and Room 10 for winning the Travel Safe Wednesday challenge.

End of week five and team Tūī's celebration hui showed just how we thrive! Their assembly, led beautifully by Luca and Stark, shared awesome learning in the arts, writing and garden to table. We had fun with a lively movement break and celebrated our soaring high award winners for growing manawa, kete and whakaaro in so many ways. Mrs Smith shared exciting news about our upcoming readathon. We also acknowledged our amazing race and southern cluster athletes and wished our Tauranga Open and Western Bay cross country runners all the best. Ngā mihi to all the whānau who joined us this morning.

Kia whakatā pai i tēnei mutunga wiki e te whānau.

Of course we value them every single day...couldn't do without them in fact! But this week we are celebrating support staff appreciation week with some extra recognition of these extra special people at our kura. A huge shout out to our learning assistants and support and admin staff who are such an integral part of team SRP!
