Puriri Team 5 - Term 3 Week 8 ending 15th September

The Puriri Team - We are counting down to the end of the term now and we are in full production mode! But don't worry parents we are still learning like crazy!  

Senior School Speech Competition - Last week Alice McKendry, Estelle Rae, Gabsy Mitchell and Frankie Ashford competed in the speech competition to a packed hall.  We were incredibly proud of how confident they were and how hard they all worked on their speeches.  

In the end Gus Dallow from Kauri team took 1st place but the judges were so impressed with all our speakers.

Production - Next week is performance week and we have been practicing every day in preparation.  Sven and Jack still need a few parents to help out with costumes and make-up on performance nights so if you are available, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday between 5.30 - 6.30 then please email them to offer your services.
