Year 5 & 6 Camp

Today the Ruahine Teaching Team went to visit the Makahika Camp site.  We wanted to make sure that all of our students will be comfortable there.  The staff there are fabulous.  I can really see that they all love their jobs very much; and who wouldn't? It's absolutely beautiful there and YES you will love it, too!

Here is a link to their website if you would like to have a look for yourself.  http://www.makahika.co.nz/schools/

I took some photos of my own so you can have a look before you go.

These first ones are of the lodge.

 

Here are the high ropes, Sam the dog (you will learn more about him) and the grounds.



There is a very well established bush camp with fire places and a river!!

More of the bush camp and the flying fox.  I can't wait to see your faces when we get there!!

Duffy Books & School raffle

Here we are with our Duffy Books!

We sure are a lucky bunch.  Another big thank you this time to the PTA and Duffy Books.

While Whaea Regina was visiting us to talk about Duffy books and herself, we asked her to draw the Camp Grocery Raffle.  We were thrilled that one of our families won the raffle. And even better was it was someone from Fantastic4!

Thank you Kids Can!!

How cool do we look in our new Kids Can Jackets?

Thank you Kids Can!!!
