Olive Oil On The Terrace Makes a Come Back!
CTS produces its own olive oil!
Prior to Covid we picked our olives and had them pressed to create the famous in Nelson, Stan’s Virgin Olive Oil. However, it has since been renamed Clifton Kids Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Stan was our caretaker at CTS many years ago and he was an initiator of the olive oil project here at CTS.
During Covid, it became difficult to make production happen. It was so famous it even made it into one of the School Journals back in 2013! Now in 2023, it’s back and there is still some available!
Everyone Was a Shining Star At Our Matariki Evening
Our Matariki evening was lovely. Getting our community together after such a disrupted last 4 or so years was gold! Thanks everyone.
Our Children are Cross Country Champions
Cross country is something that many of our children look forward to and really enjoy. Our school grounds make a natural cross country course and of course throw in some Nelson sunshine and you have the perfect day. Well done kids!
