We hope the winter months have been kind to you as we enter the tail end of term 3. 

The Parents’ Group have been working behind the scenes on organising our next fundraisers and we are excited to share with you what's coming up in term 3 and 4.  However, before we do that, we would like to take a moment to tell you about some of the other work that our Parents’ Group are involved in within our school and community. 

Although a large part of our focus is fundraising, our other important role is to help with pastoral care within our school and community.  Our Angels Group is made up of many members of our Parents’ Group who work together to help with meals, lunches, school runs and more, for families within our community during times of need.  We also are committed to providing external opportunities for our students and families through organising author visits, outside speakers, senior leadership opportunities and supporting with our special graduation each year to farewell our year 8’s.  You will also see our dedicated team behind the scenes at many of our school events and during weekends helping out with working bees.  We have even been known to sew a costume or two for school productions! 

We love to help out and bring our community together but we can only do this with your continued support.  Everytime you support one of our events by coming along or helping with fundraisers  we can continue to give back to our school, children and families.  It means so much to us and our school that we have our community behind us at a time when things are difficult out there.  However together we can and are making a difference for our students. 

So what’s happening in term 3 and 4??? There will be so many opportunities for you to get involved with one, two or all of our fundraisers and events.  We have pies to order, art for Christmas gifts and of course a Christmas raffle! We also have our senior graduation and look out for upgrades to a new play area.  

Of course we would love to see new members to our organising committee! If you would like to be part of our wonderful committee or are interested in joining our Angels group please do email us at psg@hcm.school.nz or come and chat to Malisha or Karin at school. 

Thank you Whānau!
