Seatoun School turns 100: 17-19 Sept

Alice from Seatoun

Centenary celebrations kick off on Friday 17 Sept with a Powhiri from our current students to warmly welcome former pupils and the local community.

There are plenty of opportunities to have fun and reminisce with friends throughout the weekend, including a soiree and art auction, a Centenary Dinner at the Rydges (Airport), school open days, the unveiling of a new playground, and a parade around the streets of Seatoun to the tunes of the New Zealand Defence Force ‘swing band.’

We look forward to celebrating with families and staff past and present.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
