Watergun Wednesday

Children may bring their water gun on a Wednesday.

They must wear their togs during water gun fights, only use them on the field and only at lunchtimes.


Keep Ourselves Safe

This will be taking place in the school for three weeks, starting next week.  Keeping Ourselves safe is a comprehensive programme designed by the NZ police.

An information session will be held tomorrow 12/10/16 in Room 8 at 3.15pm.  All welcome to attend.

Gala Update

The gala is just over a month away. Your help on the day is vital. Please take the time to fill in your name next to the area you are happy to help with. The gala is our big fundraiser. We rely heavily on this money to get big projects completed around the school.
Other ways you can help:
White elephant - items for this stall can be brought along to school from Monday onwards. If you are happy to keep these items at home and bring them in on the Friday afternoon prior to gala, that would be great.
Crafts - as always we will have a craft stall. If you are able to make small crafts that you are happy to donate for sale, that would be much appreciated.
Raffle - our grocery raffle is always brilliant. We ask every family to donate at least one item towards this. Please start sending these items along from Monday onwards.
Jolly Jars - these are always really popular. If you could donate small items to go inside these, or wrapped lollies that would be awesome. We are really lacking in small items, so would greatly appreciate any donations.

Looking Forward To Term 4

We look forward to seeing everyone again on Monday.  A few things to remember:

1. It is a swimming term, the pool will be heated until it warms up naturally.  Children need their togs and towel at school every day please.

2. As it is a Summer term children need to have a hat with a flap or a hat with a wide brim.  Children will not be allowed to play in the sun if they do not have a hat.

3. To ensure all children are sun smart we prefer them to wear a t-shirt with sleeves rather than singlets.

4. Having a roll on sunscreen in your child's bag (and teaching them to use it) is a great idea.

5. Children all need a bottle of water at school each day.  Please no juice or sugary drinks.

6. If possible clothes should be named.  We have a huge lost property problem and naming clothes means they have a better chance of making their way back to their owner.

Term 4 will finish on December the 15th.

Term 1 2017 will begin February 7th.

We hope children enjoy the last few days of the holidays and look forward to seeing them again next week.
