Kia ora Kevinians and Supporters of the College
With Mr Olsen away at the Aoraki Principals Meeting it is my pleasure to address you this week. I must say that it has been a week that epitomises what it means to be a Kevinian and to live our FIRE Values every day.
Last weekend we opened the College for the Bishop's Shield, to share our St Kevin's College Family with the visiting competitors and staff. Thank you to all of the students who competed, the families who opened their homes and to the army of student and staff volunteers who made the weekend so successful.
Well done to our sporting teams who have achieved so much over the winter sporting season, showing Integrity on and off the sports field. Thank you to all of the coaches, managers and supporter who volunteer countless hours to bring out the sporting best in our students. With Tournament week approaching I am always very proud of the Respect that our students display for the competition whilst wearing the St Kevin's College crest and all of the tradition that it stands for.
Yesterday Ms Walshe joined Riley Chandler, Max Stewart and their families at the Class Act Awards Ceremony in Dunedin. Their all around Excellence makes them worthy recipients and I congratulate them on their many achievements during their time at St Kevin's.
Finally I would like to thank parents and caregivers for their support with our request to keep students who are unwell at home. With winter colds and flu like symptoms holding on to the last of the winter days, along with tummy bugs and gastro illness, student health is important as we lead into the work end of the school year.
May God bless you
Kerry Ryan, Deputy Principal
