Tena koutou. We hope all our mothers were treated with some lovely surprises today. Happy Mother's Day to all our beautiful mothers! Most of our students completed a virtual Mother's Day card. It will be in their google drive account. Please keep in your prayers those children who no longer have their mothers with them. I wanted to thank everyone for the time you took last week to be involved in your child's goal setting for this term. It was a pleasure to see all of my parents and also to meet new parents.

Kamusta and Welcome to Week 6. We are already halfway through Term 2 and feeling many of the effects of Winter, namely dark mornings, cold gloomy days, and viruses. There are a number of cold viruses going around at the moment. Please remember that if your child is feeling sick, we ask you to keep them at home to recover. Over the next couple of weeks, all Middle School children will be tested in Reading, Writing, and Maths in preparation for Mid-Year reports. On Friday we have a school Mass celebrating the feast of the Sacred Heart. All parents and caregivers are invited to attend. Our Matariki Dinner is scheduled for Thursday, June 24th in our school hall at 5.30pm. Parents and caregivers are cordially invited to come and share food from their country of origin, if you wish, otherwise just bring a plate of food. It is Support Staff Week this week and at St Mary's we will be acknowledging and thanking our support staff who do a magnificent job for teachers and our children....
