Road Safety
1. We ask parents please do not stop on the bus stop below the pedestrian crossing in the mornings, this is
needed for buses. This has been a problem, and we will be having enforcement people monitor this and
give offence notices were needed.
2. Please do not enter the bus bay, or sit at the entrance to the bus bay, until after 3.20pm. Buses are
sometimes late arriving and cannot enter the bus bay. We nearly had one of our students run over in the
bus bay at the end of last term when a car drove through the bus bay as a child crossed to board a bus in
the outside lane. There is good signage advising that cars should not enter the bus bay between 2.30pm
and 3.20pm.

Congratulations
Congratulations to the following students:
Kylie McGahan R42 Centaine Noom-Duckworth R16 and Ella Moore R24 represented Harbour who made it to
the U13s Nationals final and achieved a silver medal in Dunedin. A wonderful result.
Harrison Payne R5, whose team won the U13B Nationals this weekend (11th Oct) with Waitakere West. Even
though Harrison was unable to play (an injury sustained from AIMs), he was integral to the team's lead up
and 1st seeding from the National Qualifying tournament (where he top scored with 29). A wonderful result,
particularly as this will be the last U13 Nationals as Basketball NZ will no longer be running this tournament.
Josh Kooiman R22 was in the Harbour team that came 2nd and got Silver.
Tamara Otene R36 who gained medals (two 1st and a 2nd) in her events at the U15 Badminton Nationals.
Tamara is the under 15s National badminton singles champ for 2014. Also national mixed champ with her
mixed partner Oscar Guo from Westlake Boys High School. They both have not lost a game all year even
beating u17s. Great year. Tam was runner up in the doubles.
