Due to some inappropriate behaviour with scooters and wheels at school, we are banning all wheels during morning tea, lunch and afternoon play this week.  Students are able to ride, scoot and skateboard to and from school but just not in school grounds.  Hopefully we will be back to normal next week - Week 7.

Road Patrollers please remember to do your duty before and after school.  If you are not coming to school, let Matua know so he can find someone else for your duty, or ask someone reliable to do it for you.
