Kia Ora Kevinians and Supporters of the College,
I thought I would choose this amazing photo taken by Mr Devereaux for the blog today as it reminds us that there is always something good that can be found in things that are bad. As we move into the winter season with all of its challenges of colder weather, coughs , colds and dark nights, we are also blessed with these amazing sunrises and sunsets.
This week we welcomed Mrs Strauss and her husband to our school. Mrs Strauss is a highly qualified mathematics teacher and is also a skilled netball coach. We have really enjoyed getting to know her this week and we are sure our students are going to love having her as part of our community.
This week we also had the Life Education bus in the College speaking with our students about drinking, smoking, vaping and making good choices around these. In Ball and Waitaki Week season, the school works very hard to ensure that our senior students understand their responsibilities to each other at parties. If your young person is attending parties, please ensure that they have discussed with you how they will keep themselves and their friends safe at these events. The College does not organize or endorse post event parties. Responsibility for running parties and allowing students to attend are solely the responsibility of the parent community.
Well done to those brave souls who ran the Cross Country this week. Congratulations to Mr Hose and the team for their excellent organization of the event. It has been a busy time for the PE department over the last week having just completed the Year 12 Bike Trip as well.
Have a great weekend.
God Bless
Jo
