Dear Parents/caregivers,

RE:     PUTANGITANGI KAPA HAKA FESTIVAL, INVERCARGILL

Our school has been invited to enter a group into the above festival on Friday, 29 October 2010.

A couple of the students in the group have already informed me of family holidays that clash with some of these dates. They have assured me they will work hard both at home and at the sessions they can be there for.  I am more than happy with that.

Fortunately there will not be a cost due to the grant I received from the Lotteries Board last year which was especially gifted for this festival.

The group will be travelling down to Invercargill by bus.  A letter will be sent out during the first week of term four with all the details. 

Please contact me on karenn@arrowtown.school.nz should you have any concerns or questions.
