Hello / Kia Ora
Pet Day – It was great to see
all the pets at pet day, from guinea pigs to lambs and not forgetting the pet
turkey who enjoyed the day as much as the children. Thank you to our parents
who volunteered behind the stalls to help make the day a successful and
enjoyable pet day gala and to our judges who had the task of judging the pets.
The olive oil and lemongrass soap the senior room were selling sold out making
a profit of $316. Well done guys. The cake stall and raffles made a total of
$710.10, the fundraising committee made about $1,000 in the food stalls and the
Willigers stall made $448.20 which was donated to the school.

Booster
Seats in cars for children -
This
means that all under sevens will require a booster seat when travelling by car
on school trips.
It
is generally accepted that it is safest for a child to stay in a booster seat
until they reach a height of 148cm (usually between nine and 12 years). (see
Safekids)
If
your child needs a booster seat when travelling on school trips, by car, please
make sure this is organised with the driver who is transporting your child,
before the trip occurs.
Teachers
will include information about booster seats on consent forms.
Sunsafe
Term 4—Hat wearing is compulsory when outside, during terms
4 and 1. Hats need to be able to effectively protect faces, ears and necks from
harmful sun rays.
Wide
brim hats and bucket hats are the preferred style. Legionnaire caps are excellent
Enjoy your week
