Meeting at the airport - 6am Thursday!

Arriving in Christchurch

1st XI Cricket and Tennis VIII, Christchurch Tour 2015

Wow, this term is racing by. Good luck to boys traveling to Christchurch tomorrow - what a privilege! Play hard, have fun and represent yourselves, your family and our school well. A couple of reminders:
Week 8: Mrs Cameron's last week at Hereworth - be sure to say good bye and wish her well! Also:
Tuesday - Grandparents Morning - have you invited your grandparent - or significant older 'friend'? Please do so...
Wednesday - Wellesley arrive to play 1st and 2nd XI Cricket, 1st  Tennis VIII and Softball teams on Thursday - many thanks to those who have offered to billet.
Friday- Hereworth In Action Afternoon - all boys at school until 4pm. Can you think of anyone you know who would be interested in coming to have a look - there is nothing to be lost by inviting them!

A REMINDER THERE IS MUFTI DAY TOMORROW - COME DRESSED AS YOUR FAVOURITE SPORTS PERSON.

It was great to have Karl Wixon come in to speak to the Year 7 and 8 group this morning, in preparation for the boys' preparing and presenting their pepeha.

A pepeha is about identifying yourself. 

A mihi is a greeting

Another key concept looked at:Turangawaewae:
Turanga - place
Waewae - feet
"A place to stand" - feeling like you are respected, you belong, you are confident.
