Spring is here!!

Spring is here and it makes us all feel a lot better and more hopeful. It brings nicer weather, longer days and for most people a new outlook. Studies have shown that the amount of sunlight we are exposed to actually affects our mood and mental health, so even our mood starts to improve.

It was great to see everyone so actively involved, participating and having fun at our JUMP OFF on Friday. What was really wonderful to watch was the way the students all supported and encouraged each other as they were in mixed age groups and skipping is certainly does not always come easy to all children.

I also got to catch the Waimataitai Brass concert this afternoon which was the end point for their Band Camp. Not only did they perform as a band but we were treated to some of the band members other talents. Nurturing our talents and creativity certainly helps us try new things and allows us to realise the other opportunities out there. My apologies the sound was not on and the camera person was a real amateur (me)
