E.O.T.C TO MOTAT
MOTAT On Friday, 9 March, all the Year 6 students and teachers went on our E.O.T.C trip to MOTAT to learn more about being "Kiwi As'. We had a lot of fun, playing with old toys and games, and going for a ride on the tram. Thank you to our parent helpers / caregivers for going with us. It is appreciated, because without your assistance, we would not be able to go.

Without your support, this would not have been possible.
