There will be a final meeting for parents for the preparation of Pet Day next Monday 21^st September at 2pm in the school library. Please come along if you are able to help us on the day.

Senior Rotorua Trip

We will now be able to make some tentative bookings now we know who is coming. The teachers will get together to discuss some views from parents regarding some of the activities and make contact with the Tourism Rotorua Education Officer to discuss dates in November.

Thank you to all the parents who have indicated they are interested in attending this camp. We have confirmed 16 children and 8 possibly 9 parents attending this trip.

A revised costing for this trip will come home shortly depending on the activities we do, and the cost for the accommodation.

Yummy Stickers

We are asking for all yummy sticker sheets to come back to the school whether they have been finished or not. Julia will be tallying these up over the next week and getting them sent off. We have attached new yummy sticker sheets for you to start on for next year.

Stationery Accounts

We have attached the latest stationery accounts to be paid before the end of the term. Accounts for outstanding lawns fees and manual fees will be coming home at the beginning of next term. These are separate from you stationery accounts.

Parent Survey

Our Board of Trustees want to know what YOU think about Coroglen School so have attached a parent survey for you to complete and return. All your answers will be confidential as this is an anonymous survey that is entirely your choice to complete. We would appreciate these surveys being completed by next Friday 25^th September. Summarised results will be made available at Coroglen School in Term 4 2015.
