Kia ora, e te whānau!
We're back this week for what we hope is a full and covid-free time.
We are still getting our online learning off the ground but it's great to see so many R7 students making the effort to be prepared every day for school.
This morning, we discussed and shared what it means to be prepared every day, from the time we wake up to when we arrive at school. We even looked at some expectations when we're at home.
How do we prepare ourselves for school EVERY DAY?
