A note from the Principal;
As another successful term in Ahiohill N.S.
comes to a close, I want to thank our
wonderful staff for their continuous hard
work. A huge thank you also to the parent
body and community for your support, and
to the P.A. and the B.O.M. for their huge
dedication. Together I believe we make a
powerful team in creating this positive,
safe and successful learning environment
for the children of Ahiohill.
A massive congratulations to the children
on the fantastic Christmas concert they
took part in this year – such a wonderful
display of talents! We are extremely proud
of them.
Finally I would like to wish you all a very
Merry Christmas, and health and
happiness to you all this New Year
Mrs Hodnett
