Welcome

Welcome to Hafsa Umar, Jordan Snell, Couper Vincent and Sophie Longstaff, Rasgurshan Ghuman, Managamvir Singh who started with us this week. Our current roll is 847.

 

Country Show Day

Our famous Country Show Day is on this Saturday from 10.00am to 2.00pm. This fantastic day is our major school fundraiser for the year. Our amazing PTA has spent months and months organising this day and it will be a great day. For those of you who are new to the school, Silverdale School used to be a small rural school in the past our children were encouraged to raise a farm animal, caring for and training the animal so that they can proudly show them in the animal ring on the day, to be crowned champion and then go onto the Helensville A&P Show to compete against other children from around the district. Children were still bringing in animals as late as 2016. The reason that we still keep the name Country Show Day is to keep with tradition and remember where we have come from. I look forward to seeing many of our community on Saturday. 

Please no dogs at Country Show Day.
