Next Monday, School Memories will be here to take individual and sibling photos for those children who missed out. Please email your teacher if your child was absent on Photo day, and would like to take up this opportunity.
Our Board Elections close at midday tomorrow, with our new board taking office early in September - I look forward to introducing you to our governance team once this is finalised.
Just a reminder that masks are once again a requirement for students years 4-6 - it is much appreciated how well our students take on these challenges and changes with a positive attitude.
Have a lovely rest of your week, it is great to have our fields open again for our tamariki to run around in fresh air - roll on "Spring".

Literacy/ Book Week
We had a great week at the end of Last Term. Thanks to all who participated in our daily challenges and in the bookmark and book cover competitions. Take a look at some of the entries in the covered walkway! I hope that you were able to see some of the decorated classroom doors. It was a shame that we were unable to have an outdoor Mask Parade but we were able to celebrate our mahi over Zoom.
Book fair
We would like to thank you for the support you showed during our book fair. For every dollar of sales made a percentage was given back to the school. We have benefited from your purchases and now have just over $3000 to spend with Scholastic. This is going to make a huge difference to the Discovery Hub, updating old books and acquiring new ones. Again thank you for your support.

CONGRATULATIONS
On a rainy, blustery Sunday morning in the school holidays, the Red Beach Tactix competed in the North Harbour Netball Mid-Season Tournament in Northcote. After a slightly sluggish start against Campbells Bay, the Tactix hit their stride against Kauri Park and St Johns to set up a must-win match against the team that beat them in the final of the same tournament last year. A huge effort saw the Tactix advance to the final against the only other undefeated team in the tournament.
The final was a tough, very physical and nerve-wracking game that ebbed and flowed and eventually saw Red Beach emerge as victors. The entire team truly earned the title Year 5 Netball North Harbour Mid-Season Tournament Premier Grade Champions! Congratulations girls!
Final v Belmont Superstars. RBS Tactix won 8 - 5.
Congratulations to the Netball North Harbour Mid Season Tournament Y5 Premier Grade Champions!

Front Row L-R. Charlotte Lees, Rylee Pollock, Lacey Gornall, Bonnie Collins, Maddie Dale.
Red Beach Pulse also competed in the North Harbour Netball Mid-Season Tournament and placed 2nd in the Year 4 grade..
It was a super fun day and the girls did amazing.
In the two years of playing netball, team PULSE have never lost a game, until now. We unfortunately lost in the final, but placed second.
I am very proud of these girls as they have amazing sportsmanship and compassion for their team mates, which to me is the most important skill to have in netball.
Congratulations to the girls in team Pulse:
