Kia ora e te whaanau,
Welcome back to Term 4! I hope that you have all had a relaxing break and were able to spend quality time with family, as well as friends. As we move into the summer months, we have another busy but exciting term ahead.
We will continue our Inquiry journey into at The Arts - this involves looking into artists Banksy, and also New Zealander artist Mr. G Hoete. Our focus will then shift towards a Science based approach around Climate Change.
Some things to look forward to this term are: Athletics, our School Art Competition, Student vs Teacher games and Leavers Dinner but most of all our end of year Camp in Raglan. For important dates and events, checkout our Senior Syndicate Homepage. I will endeavour to uploads photos and other information throughout the term.

Tech Arts
Students travel to Hamilton Junior High School on a Thursday for Tech Arts.
Students rotate around four classes across the school year - Visual Arts, Innovation, Hard Materials and Food Tech.
Year 7's leave school at 8.45am and return at 11.45am.
Year 8's leave school at 12pm and return before the 3pm bell.
Athletics
This term we have our Senior Syndicate Athletics Day in Week 5 on Wednesday 8 November.
In preparation of this, students will go through and learn each event from Shot Put to High Jump.
At the completion of Athletics, we will shift our focus back to the pool and enjoy the beautiful Summer weather.
Camp Raglan
Later on in the term, our Senior Syndicate will head out to Camp Raglan to end off what has been an AMAZING year!
It will be a time for all to unwind, have fun and make memories that will last a lifetime.
If that isn't crazy enough, upon our return, we will have our Big Day in which will involve more fun, games and PIZZA!
Dates: Monday 4 - Friday 8 December
