Wairau Valley Special School is proudly supporting the 1 in 3  

Hello to all our WVSS whānau,

On the 30th of August, base school and participating satellites will hold a yellow-themed bake sale, staff and students to come in their best yellow garb for a gold coin donation. Get in touch with your teacher or the office if you want to support this initiative by donating baked goods to sell.

Our school is now a registered organisation with the Cancer Society. Go to https://daffodilday.org.nz/o/wairau-valley-special-school and donate from there (try the QR code in the attached invitation). Likewise, gold coin donations will be deposited to Auckland Cancer Society's bank account.

More details to follow in the coming days. Happy weekend to all!

Voting is officially live! Focus on Ability (FOA) movie festival!

We have entered 2 movies this year.

Our Journey into the world of Kapa Haka - School documentary category

Your Truth - School Short film category

Remember, while commenting is a great way to show support, it won't count as a vote. Only one vote per person per movie is allowed. Each vote will also go into a $250 prize draw. Voting wraps up at midnight on August 13 (Sydney time). The school can receive a prize for the most votes as well as a prize from the judges panel.

After voting, you'll get a verification email to finalise your vote.
