Merry Christmas from Alan

 Moorena tamariki ma,

as you can see I'm all ready to go for Christmas Day - I've written to Santa to ask for my present (food food and more food please Santa!) and I've been a very good boy!

Keep safe, be happy, have a lovely summer and I'll see you next year.

Alan Looks Forward to Christmas

 Kia ora tamariki ma. Guess what I worked out using my awesome maths skills! It's only 17 days until Christmas! And only 3 days more school! I'm going to miss all my friends from Glen Taylor School over the holidays so be sure and say hello if you see me out walking with any of the Cox family. We would all love to see you!  

I've really enjoyed being at school this year with you all and you've worked so hard you deserve to have fun over the break. I was interested to hear all about the Summer Learning Journey that runs over the summer - for years 4-8. Heaps of fun activities to do and it means you will be all ready to go at the start of the next school year. Even this years year eights can do it and be extra ready for college. There are lots of cool prizes to be won so I hope you all  take part.

Alan Hears All About Prizegiving and the Cultural Festival

 Kia ora tamariki ma, I was very sad I couldn't come to the combined prizegiving and cultural festival yesterday but Mrs Cox said there would be lots of food around and she didn't think it was fair for me to have to be there and not have any. She also said it was probably going to be too hot for me. As it turned out she was wrong about the weather....she came home and told me all about the day though which I really enjoyed and she showed me pictures. The costumes were amazing and of course I was lucky enough to be at practice sessions for most of the groups so it was quite easy for me to picture you all. I think it was marvellous that everyone carried on when the rain arrived. Congratulations on such a successful day - oh and I'm not forgetting the art exhibition which I walked around on Monday - you're so creative.

Congratulations to all the prize winners as well. I bet you are feeling proud as you should be.

See you on Monday!!

P.S.sorry my blog was late today - I slept in!

Alan Enjoys Assembly

Morena tamariki ma. Assembly last Friday was extremely interesting and exciting! It was organised by Room 9 who did a fantastic job. They showed us some of the art they have been working on. Beautiful canvases and also some Matisse inspired pictures of goldfish in bowls. Kai pai Room 9!

I was thrilled to see so many PB4L bands given out too. There were so many I couldn't count up that high....well done everyone! I've got my white band and I'm working on my black band ....it takes a while but it's so worth the effort.

There were some special awards - my friends Pita and Dontae from room 10 received awards for being helpful with the junior students. I felt so proud of them.

I'm so glad I was at assembly to see all the special things that happened.
