Agriculture Day—Friday 19th October 2018

Thank you to the families who let us know that their child is looking at

entering a lamb or goat for Ag Day.

Ag Day is Friday 19th October, and entry forms can now be sent to the

office for registration. Forms will be available at the office, and are

to be returned to the office by 13th September. We appreciate that some

children may not have their animals before this date, but we ask that

forms be completed with as many details as possible,

and further details are provided to the office as soon as

these are available.

Can all trophies from last year's Ag Day and Group

Day please be returned to the office now.

SCIENCE FAIR

What a fantastic night. Ohaupo School won again. On Tuesday night Val Millington

and Jenny McRobbie accompanied our five Niwa Regional Science Fair winners to the

Awards Evening at St Paul’s School.

These children already won a First Prize Ribbon at the Hamilton Gardens Pavilion on

24th August and had gone on to the big event to compete against all the other winners.

Congratulations to Kirk Van Marrewijk and Jack Hogg for Highly Commended in

Technology, Jyne Eom for gaining second in Science and Oliver Hogg and Paige Keith

for First in Science. Mrs McLocklan was sick, so disappointed that she could not attend

the evening.

There were 500 entries this year so our Kauri Hub Seniors did very well.

Congratulations to everyone from our school who entered. We had seven entries in all.

On Friday at Ohaupo School assembly Ally Smith, Holly Duignan, Rebekah Ward and

Cayden Mathieson will present their entry “Dare 2 Care” and Curtis Reymer, Jack Kelly

and Jaxon Hines-Sutton will present their invention “A Split Second”. Other science

boards will be shown over the next few weeks. All entrants will be presented with

Certificates at this Assembly.
