Digital Learning - Information Evening

Digital Learning Information Evening-Monday September 5    5:30 -6:30 in Room 7

Last year it was indicated on our community survey that digital technology was an area you wanted to know more about.  Therefore we have arranged an informative workshop for you to attend.

You are invited to an information evening to find out about how digital learning happens in the Kaurihohore classrooms! We will be looking at the basic ways digital technologies are used in our learning, have a few cyber safety tips and have a special guest speaker to talk about ‘Future focused learning’. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions so if you have something you’ve been wondering about then this is the perfect chance to ask.

We will need a minimum of 10 families to RSVP for this evening to go ahead and yes…childcare will be available on site, please make sure you indicate that this will be needed on the form below so we can make arrangements.

Please fill in the RSVP slip below and return to the office ASAP to register your interest.

Calendar Orders - 2016

Don't forget to get your calendar orders in. This closes Friday the 26th. The art is always awesome on these and they are well worth buying. More order forms are available from the office.

Cross Country Today

Cross Country is still on today.

Cross Country - Friday 12th of August

CROSS COUNTRY - OUTLINE OF THE DAY

At 10.05am the school will assemble on the courts.

All races other than the Year 0/1 races go outside of the school

grounds. It is very important that cars are parked and not exiting the

school during the events.

Times on these events are approximate and we often run ahead of

time, please do not expect office staff to know which races have run or

are due to run, your best bet is to be there during the block of your

child’s race e.g. if they are in year 3, come for the morning block

before morning tea. The block of junior races are often over very

quickly.

(NB This inter-school event will be based on age rather than year

level.)

Good Citizens

Lost Property

We currently have a mountain of lost property.  This will be taken away and given to Charity in the holidays if it is not claimed.  Please encourage children to look for their belongings or pop in and rummage through this mountain of clothes yourself.  We collect more daily from around the playground.  Sadly children are not taking responsibility for their own belongings.
