Welcome to Selwyn House!


This week, it is our turn for our blog to be visited by our Quadblogging buddies Irongate School, Balmacewen Intermediate and Rotorua Intermediate. We have had so much fun looking around their websites, and we are looking forward to getting lots of visitors this week.

As a way of introducing our school, here is a lip dub that one of our Year 8s made last year for her Passion Project. We hope you enjoy it, and that it gives you a bit of an insight into what makes Selwyn House School a great place to be.

Bienvenidos! We hope you enjoy our blog!
