Dear Parents and Friends of the School


Great news........ the site preparation for the Tuapeka Aquatic Centre has just began with local contractors engaged in this big task. Students are very excited by this and are eagerly looking forward to each stage of the build and to being able to swim in the new pool this summer.

Snap Shot - Site Preparation Tuapeka Aquatic Centre 11 April 2014

We recently hosted Strike Percussion. This was an amazing musical event. Not only did we get to see and hear some brilliant drumming, students and teachers were invited onto stage to play alongside the visiting musicians. The tempo throughout was frenzied, the audience fully engaged. This was also a great learning experience as the musicians provided explanations about many aspects of percussion.

Currently we are hosting the Real Art Road Show. The truck and gallery are in themselves impressive. The art contained therein; work from New Zealand artists; established and emerging is amazing. Travelling with this show are two talented teachers Teresa and Roy who share through lessons the artists and their work. All classes as well as our friends from Waithauna School have enjoyed their hour long visit. Parents and friends of the school also made the most of this special opportunity. We have two students Taylor and Troi this year undertaking NCEA Art. Hopefully one day their art may be on display, touring New Zealand. Kind Regards John Auld
