Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Kura
Welcome to Selwyn Ridge School

Inspired by the novel 'Kensuke’s Kingdom' by Michael Murpago, room 2 are off on their own bush survival learning adventure today. They've got their beanies and warm jackets and are about to enjoy the wonderful nature at Aongatete Lodge. Have a great time team!

Welcome to Wiki 7! It was lovely to have the sun come out today and see all our tamariki enjoying the crisp fresh air outdoors. This afternoon in our Monday Message our Kahu senior students talked to us about being a kaitiaki for our kura - looking after our environment and each other. We also recognised 2 weeks of Bookmark Award winners - showing us how they are reaching for the stars and growing their whakaaro, manawa and kete of knowledge - mahi nui kia mo tonu, great work keep it up! See you at the disco on Thursday!

Kia ora whānau, Looking back to Friday last week we had a overflowing hui with so much to celebrate. Ngā mihi to team Kōtuku who led us through Mia and Hazel our awesome MC's. We had Mihi sharing, R7 Te Whare Tapa Wha mahi and junior dance, R3 awesome science learning, R1 amazing mahi toi and R2 brain break! Ka rawe tō mahi team Kōtuku! We also had our Travel safe team share the prizes for our Wednesday Challenge gate celebration - keep up the fabulous work! Our certificate winners were soaring high through learning and embodying what a kid on the ridge is all about - whakamiharo! And finally we acknowledged all our SRP open cross country runners who secured the team points trophy - what a great way to round off our awesome Friday hui:)

Coming soon... maybe this weekend you could organise your outfit? Go the Chiefs!
