We farewelled a lovely group of Thai students last week. Nabtang, Mana, Namo, Hana and Kla will return to Thailand after seven weeks at Sancta Maria College. They’ve made some great friends while they’ve participated in as much as they could while they’ve been with us. Thank you, once again, to our kapa haka group who gave them a memorable farewell.
Sadly, we also said farewell to Khang Do, who has returned to Vietnam and takes with him his very good results, especially in Mathematics obtaining his University Entrance numeracy in Year 12. This term will be another busy one ahead and we are looking forward to getting to know our latest arrivals as they settle into life at Sancta Maria College and join our international student cohort.
