Congratulations to our Year 7/8 EPro8 teams who proudly represented our school at the Selwyn Inter-school Competition held on Tuesday evening at Clearview Primary School. Throughout the event, our ākonga demonstrated outstanding teamwork, creativity and problem-solving skills.

It was fantastic to see the way they worked together, shared ideas, and supported one another under pressure.

We are incredibly proud of the positive attitude, determination, and school spirit shown. Ka rawe to everyone involved for representing our school so well!

At the end of May, students from our Year 7 and 8 Tōtara class connected with Rui'an Yunzhou Central School in China for a cross-cultural Zoom exchange. Our tamariki shared presentations about life at West Melton School and in NZ, including our school festivals, community events, and what a typical day looks like for us here on the Canterbury Plains. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to practise their communication skills while proudly representing our school to an international audience. The students at Rui'an Yunzhou Central School were an engaged and enthusiastic audience, and we look forward to continuing to build this connection across the globe. A huge mihi to all the students involved for representing West Melton School so brilliantly!

Gymnastics Success for Lily
Congratulations to Lily, who proudly represented West Melton School at the Canterbury Primary Schools Artistic Gymnastics Championships on Wednesday.
Lily delivered an outstanding performance, finishing 5th overall out of 29 competitors in her grade. Her results across the individual apparatus were equally impressive, placing 12th on beam, 7th equal on floor, 5th equal vault, and achieving an exceptional 1st place on the uneven bars.
Competing against some of Canterbury’s top young gymnasts is a fantastic achievement, and Lily should be incredibly proud of the dedication, perseverance, and skill she demonstrated throughout the competition. Her success is a reflection of the many hours of training and commitment she puts in at the West Melton Gymnastics Club.
Ka rawe, Lily! We are very proud of your achievements. 🏅🤸‍♀️👏

A reminder that on Tuesday 16 June we are holding a Whānau Information Meeting for you to learn more about the refreshed English and Mathematics curricula, assessment and reporting, learning support at WMS and where we are heading with BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Each topic area has two available sessions (the second a repeat of the first). These sessions will help you have a better understanding of what is happening in education. Busy Bumbles (our school based childcare) have very kindly offered to supervise your child/ren (free of charge) for the time you are at the sessions.

It would be great to see you there. Have a look at the timetable and see if there is anything of interest to you. Please scan the QR code and indicate your interest on the RSVP Form, which also includes childcare provision.
