Poutama Day, Student Council announced.

 A newsletter was sent home with students on Wednesday 9th March.

Poutama Day

Thursday 17th March is Poutama Day where all parents and students meet with teachers or Deans to set goals for the 2011 academic year. Your son / daughter should have arranged your interview time which will be confirmed in a letter to you this week. Mr Keenan is encouraging all students to set three goals; academic, personal and community. We look forward to meeting you on Poutama Day, 17th March 2011.
