If you can help during Fiafia evening, we are holding a meeting on Tues 18th March in the school Library. Nau mai, haere mai.

Senior Kapa Haka uniforms: We are currently designing our pare and tatua for senior kapa haka uniforms, once we have the design completed we will be getting them made by Knit Affair.

In the meantime, we are hoping to sew new tops for our girls and we need help sewing them before Fiafia. If you are interested in helping or have a sewing machine we can use, please contact Ms Tito.
