The gathering of all creatures great and small...

Witches, zombies, cowgirls, fairies and all types of magical creatures descended on Coroglen School today for a gathering of the school's annual Fun Dress Up Day.

The Witches of Coroglen School cast their spell over the whole school for a fun magical day....



The happy tourist is busy snapping shots of the fine school unaware of the terrorist in the background.....


Come me hearties and see what awaits us....
You would not want to come across this group of extreme BMX riders with their giant headed Kitty Kat or the black shadow in the background.....

Athletics Day
Coroglen School is hosting Whenuakite School for Athletics Day to compete in the annual Athletics Shield next Wednesday 4th November. Starting time is 10am.

It is a fun day where children try hard to reach personal bests in running, jumping and throwing.

Please make sure your child/ren come to school with sunscreen already applied and a hat if they do not already have one at school. School T-shirts will be given out on the Tuesday.

Please also make sure children have plenty to eat and drink to keep their bodies sustained as they will be using up lots of energy during the day.

The fundraising committee will be running a sausage sizzle on the day. Sausages $2, drinks $2, juices & moozies $1. If you are able to help out on the day, please let the girls know as many hands make light work!!!

Children will have a record card pinned to their T-shirt which needs to be handed in before they leave school on the day as this is our record of points scored.

Ages are as at the 13th October. The programme is over page. Groups A) 12+ and 11 year olds. B) 9 and 10 year olds. C) 7 and 8 year olds. D) 5 and 6 year olds.
