Fairy Godmother's day off Learning Celebration
On Wednesday the 3rd of July, Ōpāwa School will be holding a learning celebration. We would like you to join us to celebrate all of the hard work that has gone into our Storytelling and Inquiry learning this term.
From 2.00- 2.15pm, you are invited to join your child's class (if you have more than one child at school, please choose which class you would like to go to first), as they 'host' you and share their work.
Following this, you will then be free to move around the other classes to see what other learning has taken place. This will give you an opportunity to visit multiple classes during the afternoon.
We look forward to seeing you there!
