Kia ora Koutou, The end of term is nigh and in that old adage “tag you’re it”!! On a serious note, it has been a very positive term at Lakes High and one which has seen numerous student successes and opportunities. Our Sports Prizegiving on Thursday night was a fantastic way to finish the term and a great celebration of many of those successes. Thanks to all for participating. I look forward to sport continuing to grow and develop in our school. As I said in the last newsletter I am pleased that our senior students understand that the next 2 weeks gives them a great opportunity to spend time preparing for the exams in term 4. They also need a chance to re-charge their batteries and reflect on what still needs to be done. On a personal note, I would like to thank our students, staff, parents and community for making my first term at Lakes High such an enjoyable experience. Each day has shown me that I made the right decision to move with my whanau to Rotorua. May I take this opportunity to wish each and every one of you an enjoyable break. For those travelling, keep safe. I look forward to seeing everyone back safe, well, energetic and focused at the start of term 4.
Nga mihi
