A big thank you to Sophie and Amelia who handed out the E-team prizes for the best room with the least rubbish to the Landfill! ROOM 5 was the winner and at Assembly on Friday the girls presented Miss Matich with a class set of spinning tops, bouncy balls, yo-yos, etc. :) Well done!

Hutt Keep NZ Beautiful – Percy’s Reserve
Y7&8 found hardly anything, suspected HCC had been in and cleaned up.
Nikau Y4-6 we filled most of our recycling
bags from Maungarki Community.
Kowhai Y1-4 did the school and found lots
of glass, cans, straws, mandarins etc
Was suggested that Percy’s not done next
year but go up to Belmont and do the Regional Park??
