From the Principal Tena koutou katoa
Congratulations to all those students who received awards at our Arts
Awards on Tuesday evening and Sports Awards on Thursday evening.
The Arts Awards showcased the amazing talents of our students in Kapa
Haka, art, speech and debating, dance, drama, choral and instrumental
music. The Sports Awards highlighted the outstanding performances
of teams and individuals in a very wide range of sports, from the
traditional netball and rugby to trampoline, indoor bowls and ice hockey. Students participating in cocurricular activities pursue personal excellence beyond the classroom, and the skills they gain through
managing themselves and undertaking regular practice enhance their academic work. Thank you to
our guest speaker at the Sports Awards, Grant Sharman of the Wheel Blacks, for his inspiring words
about commitment and achievement. These students’ achievements would not happen without the
“Together” and “environment” parts of our Mission Statement, and I thank all involved, staff, parents
and whanau/family, for their support of the Rosehill College co-curricular activities.
In assemblies this week, I have been clear that fireworks are not be brought to school or used at school.
We need to ensure the safety of students, staff and property.
