Green Gold Enviro Award  We are now officially a green-gold enviro school and very proud of ourselves too! Well done to all our students, teachers and parents who contributed on the day and have helped put Ngatimoti on the map with our environmental efforts.  We even received a congratulatory email from a past student in Brazil so we really must be famous!  Mark Whelan

and a message from the Board of Trustees The BOT wishes to thank Amy Dell, who is our enviroschool leader, for her hard work over the years with the Envirogroup and with our teachers to embed environmental education in our school and empowering students to participate in meaningful ways to take action for a healthy, vibrant school. This resulted in last week being awarded the Green Gold award.  Well done!

               Next Friday 2 July,

Room 1 Hangi The hangi date has now been confirmed for next Friday 25 June.  Eating time will be hopefully between 1.30pm and 2pm.  Thank you very much to all those who have offered food. We certainly would rather have too much food than not enough!  If vegetables could be sent in sometime this week or early next week so I can see where I need to top up veg supplies.  The meat can be brought in next Thursday, no problems if it’s frozen.  Eel, trout etc is something which could also be added.  I am on the look out for muslin cloth, old white sheets you don’t mind us destroying in the hangi and old sacks.  If you have any of the above could you please bring into school as soon as possible or give the school a call to let us know what you have?  There has been plenty of interest in purchasing meals.  Could you please get your $5 per meal into the office by TUESDAY next week to confirm your order. This is important for making sure we have enough food on the day.  Fingers crossed for a nice day!
