🌸STAFF APPRECIATION POST 🌸

Better late than never! 🤩🤗Today we were finally able to make paths align to acknowledge and congratulate Mrs Manson on her pool custodian qualification in which she completed late last year.
Thank you Mrs Manson for completing this study on our behalf and for all the hard work and dedication you show towards our kura. We would like acknowledge the sacrifices you had to make along the way to complete this study having to use time outside of the classroom, attend courses in Hamilton and being away from family to complete this study along with navigating the challenges this can bring. We are extremely grateful! ❤️🤍🖤
As you know we love our school pool and we thank you for maintaining it for us, championing skill stroke development and ensure we continue to develop our passion for swimming and grow our water confidence. You make a huge difference and we thank you for all you do! 🤗

Well it has been along time between drinks! But boy was it worth it! 🤗 Today I held a ‘catch up’ morning tea for principal’s award winners while I was off on medical leave (Tanaya to come 😉). It was just so lovely to reconnect and have a laugh. So much yans shared and now I feel caught up on what has been happening thanks to these champs! So much fun was had by all! 🤗
Congratulations Matilda, Lucca, Theo and Louis on your well deserved principal awards from Term 2 and for waiting patiently till I got back! 🤩❤️🤍🖤
Thank you all for your positivity and great attitude towards school, you are such a delight to be around! 🤗 Keep showing the WAKA Way in all you do! Keep shining! We are super proud of you! ❤️🤍🖤
