BROWNIE, PIZZA, and a FAREWELL
On Friday, the last day of term, we celebrated the term with some delicious Chocolate Brownie that the fantastic Michelle Gillies, able supported by students in Kea and Kererū class, whipped up.

We followed that up with a Pizza lunch which we won as a result of our participation in the Junior Gatsby this year. A huge thanks to Heather and the Art Deco Trust…it was very much appreciated, and we made short work of it!!

Then it was time for our assembly which started with Kathie Davies from Tremains Real Estate presenting us with a ‘cheque’ for $500 as part of the TeamUp with Tremains inititive where home sellers can nominate a school or club of their choice to receive a $500 donation when the property sells. We’re super stoked, and will let you know what we decide to do with the donation!!

Our assembly then moved in to the celebration and farewell for Mrs. Slavin. Our hosts with the most, Kaoru and Kayla, did an amazing job!! It was a fitting farewell as we celebrated all that Heidi has contributed to school. We know she has so much to give and wish her the all the best on the next step of her teaching and leadership journey.
