TERM 3 2013

Welcome back to everyone at Merivale School.  We had a well deserved holiday and now it is all back to hard work and learning new things...BUT most of all enjoy life.

On Thursday afternoon Whaea Dayle and myself went to visit Rlexuz in hospital. Rlexuz got sick the first week of the holiday and has been in hospital since then.  He was so positive and is longing to be back with all of us at school. Here is a photo of him with Whaea Dayle.
