The day before the Easter break we has an Easter Hat Day. All the students and some staff as well made funny hats to wear. We then had a parade to show them off.
This year the Year 4/5/6's from Kiawaka School went to camp at the Marsden Bay Christen Camp. They had a lot of fun challenging themselves with "Rock Up New Zealand", the water slide, flying fox, kayacking, and finishing with a visit to the Waipu Caves. Many thanks to all the parents who supported the camp and allowed it to happen.
