BNZ Closed for good day

We had the awesome team from BNZ come into school to talk about financial literacy with some of our classes.

Here's a few photos of Marie & Natasha working with Room 11.

Term 3 Powhiri

Here are some photos from our Term 3 Powhiri. The purpose of this Powhiri was to welcome new students and Whanau into the GTS learning community. 

We also give thanks to the wider members of the community who gave generous donations toward our school KapaHaka uniforms. GTS appreciates you all.

We had amazing performances from the KapaHaka and our world famous Pasifika Pearls.

One of the best Powhiri's GTS has experienced - I must say.

Blessing of our Kapa Haka Uniforms

Today we had Papa Big and the Ruapotoka Marae come to school and bless our new Kapa Haka uniforms. Our school Kapa Haka performed a couple of waiata's. Great to see more involvement from the community through sharing Tikanga Maori experience.

Our GTS Manaiakalani ambassador - Room 11's very own HONEY!
