POH gives the final approach speed as 63 Kts with full (40 deg) flap.

Depending on how you've flown the circuit or the approach you may find you'll need a little power or you might be power off. Either way you'll find the best landing is achieved by flying this speed to approx 3-5ft off the ground, then kill the power, start the flare and let it land itself, continuously easing back and holding off until the wheels touch at the same time (hopefully) as the stall warner goes off.
