Wednesday 30th June 2021

Room 1 missed the paper copy of this notice today sorry- please feel free to email your response directly to Michelle at the office at michellev@arthurst.school.nz .  This must be received by midday tomorrow at the latest.

Kia ora whānau and friends of Arthur Street School,

We are excited to invite you to this year’s Matariki Celebration on Tuesday July 6th at 5.30PM. 

Matariki is a time of year where we reflect on the year that has been and look forward to, and make plans for the year ahead.

This year, our event is being held at the Otago Boys High School Auditorium where our Kapa Haka and Pasifika performance group will perform. It would be wonderful to have all students involved in this group present, so that we can perform at our best. 

Following this we will return to school and share kai together. The school will provide pumpkin soup and buns for dinner. There will be no charge for this. For catering purposes, we require all people planning to attend the event including performers to register with us. 

Please fill in the form attached below and return it to the school office before Thursday 1st of July (extended because of weather & absences. )

Nga mihi nui,

Alice Frame and Rua Smith
