Easter Bonnet Parade

Aloha College Junior School children celebrated the approach of Easter with their annual Easter Bonnet parade. The beautiful hats ensured the parade was a riot of colour – and the children went home with a large chocolate-filled Easter egg each.

Aloha College Book Week

In April Aloha College celebrated Book Week by doing curricular activities which focussed on different characters from pupils’ favourite books. On Friday everyone, including teachers, came dressed as their favourite character and regaled parents and Senior School pupils with their fantastic costumes.

Young Writers Poetry competition

Students from all Year groups were invited to write a poem to celebrate World Peace Day. The standard was so high that many of these poems were submitted to A Young Writers Poetry competition. The best 32 poems have just been published by Forward Press in their book, Poetry Matters.
