End of Year Message:

 
 
 

From all of us to all of you, we wish you the very Happiest Christmas. 

May your celebrations be memorable and happy. May your family be safe and together. May you find time to rest and restore your spirits. May you receive unexpected surprises that bring joy. May you receive lots of hugs and lots of thanks for all you give to, and do for others.

Finally, may you receive enough tasty treats to encourage you to get out in the beautiful summer sun and work some of them off! 

It has been an incredibly special and memorable year. Being away for a term - my first break in 40 years - was life changing and exceptionally special. I could relax and enjoy it because I knew our school was in the safest of hands under the leadership of Adele Nummy, ably supported by DP Teresa Hannard and our four team leaders -

 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 

Annette Pram, Lisa Pasilic, Jenna Aalbers and Alannah Lupe-Houben. They are the ultimate dream team that any principal would be proud to have.

Our staff - teachers and support staff - are equally wonderful, special, caring, dedicated, talented, hard-working and passionate.


Our school is officially one of the best in New Zealand. This is down to our people - brilliant, wise and wonderful every one of them. They give their all for their children and each other. Over 25 years as a principal, I have always had successful schools and high achieving teams, but I can assure you none can match the team we have here. They are an absolute joy to work alongside, they inspire me every day.


I must also specifically also thank our Board - I include them in my comments above about our team. Our school is fortunate to have such wise, experienced and talented leadership. This allows a segue into reminding you all that Board elections are next year and there will be vacancies on our Board, so please give this some serious thought and consideration. It is a rewarding role and not too time-demanding.


Finally, I must thank you our parent and extended family community. You are always friendly and positive. You listen, you support, you get involved - and best of all, you trust your most precious children into our care each day. What a gift that is. Your children make us smile, make us laugh, make us learn patience, make us think creatively and outside the box, challenge us, inspire us and drive us to be the best teacher-mums and teacher-dads we can be for them each day.  What a privilege!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Farewell Assembly For Mina-and-Bronwyn and Stuart:

 
 

A fabulous turn out of friends old and new, and family made this a very special occasion.

Our gifts were particularly appreciated - beautiful greenstone pieces for Mina and Bronwyn, a continuation of her tattoo for Mina and a Weber Barbecue for Bronwyn.

Kanah’s speech and a Haka from our boys were clearly moving for Mina. Special thanks to Adele for her thoughtful gift-choices.

 
 
 
 
 
   
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 

Stuart will be so missed by everyone at WHS. Parents, students, colleagues - everyone loves Stuart.

Gentle, kind, wise and well-travelled, Stuart is creative, passionate and multi-talented. He is calm and competent with a fine sense of humour.

Quinn presented him with  Greenstone piece at the year six Graduation Dinner - how cool is that!

Mrs Lupe-Houben was adamant she would cause Stuart to shed buckets of tears at his farewell - ironically Alannah did just that herself.

 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Farewell - for now - to Kate Mollineaux:

 
 
 

Kate is a very special teacher - I know we can say that about all our teachers at WHS as we are truly blessed with the team we have.

Loved by all, Kate is also kind, wise, calm, caring and a consummate professional in all she does. 

Kate leaves us to become a mum, but will be back we are pleased to say.

I thought I’d share a post of Kate’s that shows her character and her regard for her colleagues here.

A few photos of the mum to be won’t go astray.


Here are Kate’s thoughts on ending her year…


Last week of the term! So many feelings as we wrap up the term and I pack up my class and say goodbye to the children. Your class really becomes your second family!


As challenging as teaching can be, the people you work with really make all the difference. I read the ‘Marigold Effect’ for Beginner Teachers - a very cool guide. It states that if you find at least ONE Marigold in your school you are likely to be very successful. I knew I had found a Marigold in Iris as a Student Teacher here, but I didn’t think I would be lucky enough to find a school full of Marigolds!

 
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 

Year Six Graduation Dinner:

 
 

Last Friday night our Year Six Graduates dressed up in their finest evening wear and came together for a lovely meal with many WHS staff joining them.

A number of children gave speeches of thanks and recognition - as did a number of staff.

Miss Eyre had video and photos from when many of our graduates had been in her class.

It was a special evening.

Big thanks to Alannah Lupe-Houben and her brilliant Kakapo Team of teachers and support staff. You have done a brilliant job of raising very fine young men and women.

On their behalf, our sincere thanks.

Junior Christmas Concert:

 
 
 

This was a brilliant evening in every respect. A huge turn out of parents, and children.

A picnic tea, beautiful weather and the talents of our juniors and their passionate teachers on full display.


Congratulations to all involved - it was awesome to be able to share in this event.

TV3’s “The Project” Interviewed our Children:

 
 
 

Last week TV3's “The Project” interviewed a number of our senior children on their thoughts about a Kiwi Santa. The interviewers and technicians were hugely impressed with our children’s confidence and creative thinking. 

They said our children really stand out as really confident and capable communicators and ‘outside the box’ thinkers. They asked what we do differently here - I asked ‘how long have you got?’

They will be back next year to do a story on our Pay It Forward programme.

More YouTube Links for you To Check Out - Jerome Kavanagh:

 
 
 

Jerome is a National Treasure. He has been working with our children on our new WHS Haka and WHS Waiata. Jerome came back for an extra half day for free as he had some spare time before his meeting with the CEO of Google Australasia - how cool would that meeting be!

Jerome shared his love of New Zealand indigenous musical instruments with our children too. 

He also taught our children how to calm and centre yourself with “Me te Ha” deep breathing. Just four breaths help you to make a good decision and avoid a sad or angry mistake.

Room 10 Visit to Amberwood Rest Home:

 
 
 

This has become an annual Pay It Forward event for Mrs Taylor and room 10 children. It brings so much joy to the elderly and to the children too. 

Some risked having the breath squeezed out of them the hugs were so big, but everyone was smiling and the children’s handmade gifts were given and received with love.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Glee Club Visit Ons Le Dorp Home for the Elderly:

 
 
 

Our gorgeous and greatly talented, not to mention gregarious Glee Club kids visited Ons Le Dorp to sign and shine and share. They brought lots of musical and dramatic joy to the elderly. The hugs and one on one attention meant so much to all the residents. Well done Annette, Kelley, Mark and Nic - you are an awesome team and our children are so fortunate to have your guidance, encouragement and support.

Tour Diary Snippets and Stories 

 
 
 

Italy:

Venice for three days was a treat. It’s an amazing place. We took the Hop-on-Hop-off water taxi to all the points of interest. The island of Lido turned out to be the highlight. The beaches are beyond beautiful. Perfect sand, calm, warm waters and beautiful beach bures to relax in.

We hired bikes and biked the island and it was a trip highlight.

The crowds were nowhere near as bad as we had expected, but the gelato on the other hand was much, much better than I had expected (and I did expect it to be good). Hand-crafted with exotic flavours, it was a treat. We chose cardboard cups and eventually discovered they are cleverly designed. It’s almost a false bottom situation - the bottom of the cup inside is raised quite a bit above the bottom of the outside.

 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
 

On our boat trip we went past a big structure somewhat like an oil rig. Its real purpose is to control big sea gates. These are raised by the ‘rig’ when water levels raise and/or when heavy rain falls. Although Trump denies it, Global Warming is a real issue for Venice. Add to that, Venice is actually sinking, and finally add to that winter storms, and you have (pardon the pun) the perfect storm.

The cost for Venice is over three hundred million Euros - and counting. That is over half a billion in New Zealand terms.


Day two we hired an almost brand new Fiat Bambino 500. What a beautiful little car too. We took it to Reggio Emelia on day three.

The rest of day two was spent sorting out stuff, a long walk, some research and a visit to a shopping centre. The biggest surprise was dogs. They are everywhere - on buses, boats, streets and markets - including in shopping malls. In the Apple Store there were three dogs - a huge Doberman and two medium size dogs. In the mall itself we came across at least a dozen more - many making friends, others making their territory clear and doing their best to stay upright on highly polished tile floors. It is hard to imagine seeing this in Sylvia Park for instance.


The drive to Rome via Reggio Emelia and Florence was pretty awesome. Most of the way we sat at 130 to 140 kph - the speed a lot of the traffic was doing. The highways are great - up to four lanes, and with very clear rules. The inside one or two lanes are for slow traffic and trucks. The outside lane is for passing. As a general rule, even if you are doing 140kph, you do not stay in the outside lane. It was almost funny to see an Audi pass a slow car at 140kph, pull into the right lane briefly and then pull out to pass the next vehicle and so on. Often there was barely enough time to move to the right before having to go left and get round the next slow vehicle. The rule, almost universally obeyed, seemed to be pass one vehicle at a time.


Reggio Emelia was so inspiring and so confirming of Annette Pram's vision for our early learners.


Florence was very cool. We drove through the very oldest parts, over cobbled streets with sheer stone walls stories high, that we literally a couple of centimetres wider than our Bambino on either side. It was so much fun and a bit of a challenge to make a turn from one street to another without any scrapes.

Florence was also very beautiful and so rich in history. All too soon we had to set off for Rome in order to return the rental car in time.

Some background on that point. When I booked the car I thought it would be easiest to return it to Rome airport as they should be open 24 hours. When doing so on my phone I got a bit confused. I assumed having typed in Rome Airport there would be one choice. There were several, so I thought Rome must have several airports (it actually has two). So I picked what I thought was the closet to our camp site - Rome Central.

That is not an airport, it is a branch of Europcar in the very centre of Rome. I had selected 8pm but had not counted on a nine kilometre trip through the centre of Rome taking 45 minutes. In the end, after travelling through an absolute maze of one way streets, avoiding drivers who care nothing for lanes, queues or road rules of any sort, I found the office and then the drop-off that was somewhere else - ten minutes after 8pm. So disappointed.

The cleaner guy said if I leave the car there it would cost an extra 80 Euros as the office was closed, but if I took it to another building they would be open and I could leave it for free. He had little English and I had less Italian but I somehow worked out where it was. After another maze of seemingly endless one way streets - I basically constructed a Koru pattern with the car - we found the place and drove to the top floor. It too was closed. And there were no parking spaces left. At the end of a day that began at 5am for the second day in a row, it was not a good feeling.

Fortunately another company sharing the top floor was open and took our keys and let us double park. Just in time because a guy came up after us in the same situation and had nowhere to park. He became very loud and very angry very quickly - so we left equally quickly.


The following morning we joined a Bus-About Tour of southern Italy. We were 45 in total - mainly Aussies, but with a teacher from Tirimoana who is best friends with Melissa Hutton and who had just resigned his job before going on tour.


The following may - probably won’t - be of interest, but that hasn’t stopped me before as Jacq will attest.


We first visited Pompeii:

The locals were celebrating the feast of Vulcan two days before hand. This was in 79 AD. In just 6 hours 3,0000 were dead from the toxic gas and ash from Vesuvius. The ash covered Pompeii 12 to 15 metres deep. It ensured perfect preservation of the bodies and much of the city. The gas clouds killed the people first - at 350 degrees Celsius, there was no surviving it.

One third of the city is still under ash. Just recently they unearthed a headless body - the head had been taken off by a volcanic boulder.

The history of Pompeii and this event was recorded by Pliny the Elder - a famous Roman writer, historian and thinker (though some of his theories were so far off the mark as to be very humorous).

The bodies decayed inside the ash, so they pumped plaster into the cavity then chipped  off the ash and so had plaster models of the people as they were when the volcano erupted.

Vesuvius is the most dangerous volcano in the world and could erupt any time - the last time was in 1944. A big eruption is expected soon. 90,0000 live in area today, if It erupted many in the red zone would perish.


Gladiators fought here in amphitheatre - they were slaves and prisoners of war. 17 gladiator slaves and one body of a rich lady were all found  in same small room.


The streets of Pompeii were sloped to send water and poop to exits below. Big crossing stones were placed across poop streets so you could walk across and avoid the poop (this was the guide’s word so I have stayed with it).

East West streets slope to the main North South Street - all to ensure passage of the poop to where it needs to go.

A large lava rock at entrance to street meant it was a one way street.

There were 92 takeaway sites found in Pompeii - the original McDonald’s. 


Aqueducts were built in 100BC - they fed lead pipes, which of course led eventually to lead poisoning and was a factor in the downfall of the Roman Empire.

They also built water tanks to reduce and control the water pressure that otherwise broke the pipes.

There were five saunas in Pompeii - boiling water for hot baths generated stream that was sent to the sauna room. Steam rises so grooved ceilings were built in the saunas to avoid drips. Condensated water ran along the grooves was collected and reboiled.


There were many merchants here from many nations - it was a melting pot so people learned to used hand signals to communicate. This has carried over to today where Italians communicate with their hands when talking to each other.


The Romans developed lego building blocks to ensure columns were interconnected and stayed strong. They also set white stone moonlight reflectors into the street to guide people at night.


Naples has always been a rebellious area. There was a National seat belt law enacted so Neapolitans printed T shirts with black bands across them to fool police and thus rebel against the law.


Sophia Loren was working in a Naples restaurant when American GI soldiers discovered her. She was sent to USA on the promise of a five movie deal and she went on from there to become world famous.


The Mafia are big in Naples. The Camorra group launder money in restaurants etc from their protection racquet. Also from 

Cock fighting

Human trafficking

Gambling

Amalfi is run by the Mafia especially bus coach parking - we saw a few of them - our guide had a code name for them -  cupcakes. You can't guide in some areas due to the Mafia protection situation.


Several times we saw four cops in a tiny police patrol car. I wondered how they made arrests but was told that it’s no problem as they don't make arrests -they  just take bribes for infractions.

All cops in the area are apparently on the Mafia patrol

Businesses pay cops, taxes, rent and the Mafia. Government tax is 28%, so getting a bargain in Italy is next to impossible.


Other facts in passing:

We drove through 46 tunnels between Florence and Rome - most of them seemed new.

Naples has two way tunnels - the rest are all one way.


Sorrento and Capri

Tiberius' Leap on Capri is a spot where the Emperor threw off partners who displeased him.

A Villa on a cliff top sold for 74 million - the purchaser has a Baby Food company in the USA

Gwyneth Paltrow, Kourtney Kardashian and  Leonardo de Caprio were all in Capri and Positano when we were there.

They have big domed humps of sand on house roofs for insulation.

The streets are incredibly narrow so they have a driving rule - number plates ending in odd numbers use the roads on alternate days to cars with number plates ending in even numbers.

The average price of hotel room 350 Euros a night in Positano, however  Hotel San Pietro costs 650 Euros a night

There is a big cemetery on the side of a hill in Positano - it is now home to the inventor of the crossword puzzle - you can find him two down and  four across.

 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 

Seen This Week 

 
 
 
 
 
 

Room seven made cardboard creations for their art focus - pretty cool and creative.

 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 

At Right:  Toby completed a Weetbix Triathlon in Rotorua recently - he persevered through heavy rain too.

Toby also won a trophy from his ski club for Junior Boys Slalom - 10 and Under. Awesome.


Below:  At the recent Hajamie Judo Club  end of year prize giving Peyton Hopson received many awards such as being our most improved peewee for 2018, showing great potential, her half yellow belt and she also fought very hard to win a Gold medal in our club's knockout competition.

Chloe’ Hopson also received many awards such as the best girl in the club overall for 2018 , her green belt, showing fantastic potential and she also fought very hard to win a Gold medal in our club's knockout competiton.

 
 
  
   
   
 

Below:  Aleena passed her Trinity College London Grade One Music Exam with Distinction.

She was also the top junior in the Henderson Youth Division of  St John Ambulance  - officially Penguin of the Year. A very talented young lady.

At Right:  Luke Karena is not yet 10 years old but he is already well on the pathway to stardom. This is a young man to keep watch on. This weekend he claimed 8 Gold and 1 Bronze medals at the Auckland Swim Champs.

Two things stand out - Luke was disappointed with that bronze, he is a driven young man. Secondly, he set one record that had stood for 18 years, and another that had stood for 16 years. That is so impressive, just stunning Luke.

Results:  Golds in 100m Butterfly; 50m Breaststroke; 100m Breastroke (broke 18 year record); 20m Freestyle; 200m Breastroke (broke 16 year record); 200m Individual Medley; 100m Freestyle; 50m Butterfly. Luke also claimed Bronze in 200m Backstroke.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A huge thank you to Jonathan Clark’s parents, Les and Kathryn, for providing us with Auckland’s coolest and biggest water slide.

Our kids - and teachers - had the best fun on it. The weather was kind too.


I attempted a hit and run water-pistol mission but failed badly. I underestimated how persistent juniors can be when they have a water pistol in hand and a target in their sights. When some got tired others took up the cause, so I had no show and soon was thoroughly soaked!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Pay It Forward Projects Making Us Proud:

 
 
 

Every class every year undertakes a Pay It Forward project to make a difference in our school, community, country or even world. It is one of the things that makes our school special. We are teaching our children to be caring, contributing, connected citizens. They are learning that giving to others brings great joy - to the receiver and the giver.

Rooms 13, 11 and 3 organised our Christmas Giving Tree in our foyer. In total they collected 146 presents for children who might not otherwise have a Christmas present this year. Just think of the joy that will bring to 146 needy children. On their behalf, a huge thank you to our community for your generous support for this worthy Pay It Forward.

 
 
  
 
  
 
 

Our School Councillors organised a CupCake sale to raise funds for the SPCA. They dressed up as animals and sold lots of cupcakes, raising $278.50 for this very worthy cause. Awesome mahi Councillors.

 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 

Room 18 decided that this year for our Pay It Forward we would create something for the Community. 

After a lot of discussion, we settled upon writing stories and poems for the residents of

Waitakere Gardens. We really enjoyed crafting these, and kept asking our teacher if we could write more and more! 

On Friday 30 November,  Ms Aalbers took a few of us (the Community Liaison Officers) to deliver them to Waitakere Gardens. 

They were so happy!

We got to meet the manager and he said that he was going to share our stories with all of the residents at their next meeting.

By the ‘Western Heights Warriors’ platoon leaders; Sameeha and Aniq, and Community Liaison Officers Emily and Jorja

 
 
  
 
 

Room 21 children decided to give a personalised gift to all the teachers - secretly.

So when I came back to my office I was very pleased to find a little present and uplifting message sitting on my desk. Troy saw who brought it but had been sworn to secrecy and did not tell. We found out in the end though - thanks room 21, you brightened the day for lots of us.

Room 8 and 29 teachers were heavily involved in the Glee Club presentation to Ons Drop residents for their Pay It Forward.

They also put on a show for local Kindys which was really well received…

Another amazing day at TLC for our tamariki. Today we walked up to Western Heights School to watch some of the children perform songs from their Xmas show, play instruments including ukeleles and watch the Kapa Haka group perform. Thank you Western Heights School it was fabulous. Also thank you to the many parents, grandparents, uncles and aunties who joined us.

 
 
  
 
 
 

Te Atatu MP Alfred Ngaro brought in a Christmas gift for WHS this week. He was given a whole lot of Cruise Ship life jackets to distribute.

If you want one, let me know and it’s yours. 

They are better suited to swim schools and the like, for teaching how to survive an emergency in the ocean. Apparently you can stay afloat in the sea for six days in them and they are designed so you can sleep in them - in the ocean, while waiting to be rescued - too.

So if there are no takers, I will donate them to a South Auckland school with a swimming pool.
