Year 9-10 Museum Visit
As part of our ‘Second World War’ unit, Year 9 and 10 students visited the Anne Frank exhibition at Puke Ariki on Monday, March 5.
The exhibition was excellent, and the students really enjoyed seeing what they have learnt in the classroom come to life in the real life.
A big thank you to Fran Cruden and Amara Gibson for helping with transport to and from town. Without the support of parents, these trips become logistically difficult and prohibitively expensive.

In 2009, two Year 7 and 8 classes from Coastal Taranaki School were involved in a 60 Springs environmental monitoring project, learning about their local wetland. This project was part of the 60 Springs programme run by Puke Ariki in partnership with Shell NZ and the Taranaki Regional Council. 60 Springs provides opportunities that inspire young people to develop innovative solutions towards a more sustainable Taranaki.

Production preparation is well underway. All students are working hard to ensure this is a whole school production. Seniors are involved in choreography of dances, prop making, stage directing and technical aspects, alongside junior students dancing and acting.
Tickets are on sale now, and can be purchased from the School Office – Adults $5, Children $2, Family $15.
It is great to see students arriving with necessary costumes. If you are having trouble sourcing anything please touch base with your child’s teacher this week. In order to keep costs realistic, we have sourced props and costumes at the Hospice and Savemart.
