Sommerville Social

Hello 

Just a quick message to let everyone know that we will be holding a Sommerville Social on Tuesday 2nd of September in the Tamaki Hall.

The idea behind the social is to allow those students who normally wouldn't be able to attend a social in the evening to party and dance with everyone during the day. It is open to all students of all abilities, is it is during the day we will have the teachers and learning assistants to support and supervise all the students.

Last year was a huge success and some parents even came in to have a look and a dance as well with their children. They are more than welcome to do the same.

The goals for our students are around, social etiquette. Introducing themselves and being friendly and welcoming.

If you have any queries or questions please don't hesitate to ask

Make sure you bring your dancing shoes,

Kind regards,

 

Lionel Tapara

Teacher            

Community Education Program 

We will be going for an afternoon of fun and dancing. 

Popcorn and Drink provided as fuel for dancing.

Where:Tamaki Intermediate Hall

When:Tuesday 2^nd September

Time:11:00-1:00
