Dear Parents and Caregivers,
The long awaited World Cup has arrived and today the children were dressed in a myriad of colours supporting the different teams. They looked amazing! Over the next few weeks the children will be learning a little bit about the countries with teams taking part.
Next Week
Conservation Week - September 11th - 18th
This years theme is 'We love you New Zealand. Show New Zealand that you love it!' On Monday September 12th all of the Junior School will be going to our local beach during the afternoon to clean up the area of any rubbish. The children will be wearing gloves while they do this. Have a look at the Department of Conservation website to see what other activities you and your family can do together.
'Starting School at Five' Information Evening
The information evening for parents of pre school children will be held in the school staffroom next Wednesday September 14th at 7 p.m.
Calendars
The children have all been very busy creating their artwork for their calendars. The completed works are on display in classrooms and also on some blogs. The art works can also be made into a set of cards or a diary. These make very good Christmas presents for family members especially those people who are hard to buy for. The orders will be back in time for overseas posting. Please have a look at the children's work and get your orders into the school office by September 23rd.
Enrichment
Every two weeks the children of our Junior School move to another classroom for an afternoon to take part in a range of Enrichment opportunities. When they work in room 3 with Mrs Heath they participate in construction activities. As part of this she needs some empty cardboard boxes and empty 'gladwrap' rolls. If you have any could you please send them to room 3.
Have a great weekend.
Kind regards
Maureen Buckley
Deputy Principal
