Week 2 is here!

Week one is done and dusted and what a great week it was @Gisint. Thank you all for having your children so well organised. Turanganui is full of outstanding students and we are excited about what 2016 is going to bring.

 Team PE session with Matua Puri

Mr Hart exciting our team about the Gisint Badges, Honors and Colours Rewards being introduced this year. 

 Our focus for last week was on building relationships with each other, establishing our class treaties and familiarising ourselves with the Gisint Code of Conduct, Traffic Light system and all of the amazing opportunities that will be on offer this year. In 2016 a new Honors, Colours and Badges system is being introduced to acknowledge our students academic, sporting, cultural and values achievements. We look forward to our Turanganui students being decked out in these awards. Each week our classroom certificate recipients will be displayed on our individual class pages and any syndicate wide recipients will be displayed on this team page. 

What's on @Gisint this week?
