Triathlon & Tent City Sleepover A BIG congratulations to everyone that took part in our Triathlon last week, including our parents! We achieved nearly 100% participation which is fantastic! " Our Tent City Sleepover was an overwhelming success! It was fantastic to see everyone enjoying each others company and generally just having a really good time. Getting to meet more of our Whanau (parents, caregivers, Nana’s, older & younger siblings etc) was a highlight for me and went a long way to show the support that you all have for your child’s education, so thank you very much!!!"
