Principal's Comment

 Kia Ora Kevinians and Supporters of the College,

Today was a special day for the support staff of the College as they celebrated 'support staff week' with lunch at the Castle. What was fairly typical about this was that they didn't even realize it was support staff week till halfway through, basically because they were too busy! When we think of a school it is easy to think of teachers and students but no school would exisit without the army of other people who ensure we are warm, dry, financially solvent, fed and safe. Our support staff are amazing and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them very much for everything they do.

Our junior students traveled to Dunedin to the quad tournament yesterday and had some outstanding results. Mr Devereaux and Mrs Clapperton both reported that our students showed excellent sportsmanship and played well. Congratulations to all of the teams who took part.


I have posted an invitation to our Māori families to come to our Hui on the 28th of June. If you would like to attend that function please e-mail the office or myself as we will need numbers for catering.

And finally ...(Mr Herbst may tell me off for beginning that sentence with a conjunction) I have invited expressions of interest to any Alumni who would like to be involved in our Centennial projects of our Stables upgrade, our Castle upgrade or running the centenary itself to please get in contact with me at principal@stkevins.school.nz We are keen to get people on board with different skills and ideas as we lead into this very important moment in our history. If that sounds like something you would be interested in helping with - please get in touch.

Have a great weekend.

God Bless

Jo Walshe
