Welcome to Mount Biggs School Term 1 2023.

Kia ora Koutou,

Welcome back to the start of the 2023 Academic school year. We had our powhiri to welcome new families and it was great to have so many new families attend. Our staff and students were there to support and ensure the warmest welcome was offered to our new families.

We welcome Kelly Jones who will be working across our school as a release teacher throughout the year. It was great to have Kelly and her young family join us for our powhiri.

Teachers have spent numerous hours getting our physical spaces ready for the year ahead. It is great that new furniture is being purchased throughout the school to help provide the best resources available for our students to learn, and our teachers to teach.

We have a Working Bee and Community picnic on Saturday February the 18. More information around this will follow in the coming weeks from our Home and School Committee, but please save the date. We look forward to working alongside you all in 2023.

Please keep up to date with our school Community newsletter found on our website; and download our 'Skool Loop' app found in the app store on your phone - it is free and a great place to keep informed about whats coming up in our busy school via our school calendar, Community newsletters, Mount Biggs Bulletin and being able to do absences.

Another exciting term ahead at Mount Biggs School.
