100% for students

100% for students

Mrs Mortell’s class is pictured here celebrating their success of achieving 100% on Feet First Thursday. Two classes at Papamoa School have now achieved 100% and are aiming to continue.

Students are encouraged to walk, cycle, scooter, bus. Look at the cycle racks! The school has had to increase the number and size of the cycle area to accommodate the numbers cycling to and from school.  In Term 3, Papamoa School Feet First results have continued to rise with full commitment from staff, students and parents – they have a 435 students walking, cycling, bussing. Well done Papamoa School – you are awesome!
