Week 3 Home Communication

Whiriwhiria kia eke panuku!

Kia Ora, 

Welcome to Week 3 of Term 1.  We are all set for camp and looking forward to fun activities!

HANMER SPRINGS CAMP

A notice is coming home today with reminders of camp (we will email this too).  The packing list was sent home last year, and we have also put this on the blog.  We ask that you pack appropriate clothing - i.e. tee-shirts and long sleeved shirts, shorts and track pants, sneakers, hats, sunscreen, etc.  Singlet tops are inappropriate due to sunburn and other weather conditions.  It is very helpful if you name all your child's belongings, as we usually come home with lost property.  Please remember to pack a container of home baking

SWIMMING
We hope to swim most days each week.  If your child is unable to swim, can you please let us know (email, note, in person). Thanks.  Swimming sports are in Week 5.  A notice will be coming home shortly.

LUNCH
Hopefully you have heard of the changes to our lunch time.  Our children are also working very hard at getting as many tokens into our jar, so they can be rewarded for being in the right place at the right time.

GALA
Our Gala this year is on Friday, 22nd of March.  Some PTA representatives will be coming to speak with our team on Monday, to share possible ideas.  More information will come out about this later.
