Important Notice re year 8 Surfing Session
Dear parents, students and whanau
Due to the forecast inclement weather conditions (thunder and lightning and heavy rain) and on the advice of West Coast Surf, the decision has been made to cancel the Year 8 surfing session at Tauranga Bay on Tuesday 3rd December 2019.
There is no postponement date however I do recommend that families look into contacting West Coast Surf regarding surfing sessions over the summer holiday break. Mark Perana is one of the top surfing coaches in New Zealand and he and Leeann Hill provide an excellent introduction to this sport.
Year 8 students will be expected to attend school in their uniform on Tuesday for another scintillating day of learning in the classroom. ;-)
