                                                              Kia ora             Talofa lava             Greetings               Bonjour

We are in the final Week of Term 3 and will finish school this Friday 27th September at 3:00pm. We will return on Monday 14th October for term 4 and will send out a usual pre-term notice before we start back. This will include the Term 4 overview and any other notices about pōwhiri to start Term 4.

The last week has been a great week with still a few events. We were able to have Empire Dance studios in our school yesterday. They performed for our students and ran sessions with them. We also had our Po Fiafia night on Friday night where our Year 6 students and other tamaiti performed. It was a wonderful evening for our Mua i Malae community. Thank you to Ms Moana and the Mua i Malae staff for organising such a beautiful evening.

Just a heads up too - we have been told by the government and Ministry of Education to choose a day in a two week period next term to have a Staff Only Day to prepare for some curriculum changes and additions. We have chosen to do this on Friday 25th October before the long weekend hoping that this will suit more than others for our families. Please find alternative arrangements for your child on this day. We will be closed for instruction on this day and will update you more on the kaupapa for this day for staff and the new curriculum changes.
