Hello and Kia ora tatou.
Welcome
Welcome to Mickey
Brajkovic who starts with us as a Year 5 student.
Sadly we are saying
goodbye to Valo and Fari Gray this week who are moving to Whenuakite School.
Life Education Trust
Everyone has enjoyed
visiting Harold and Mike in the classroom and learning about friendship,
relating to others and dealing with peer pressure.
We are asking each
child to send along a gold coin donation to help towards the cost of having
Harold visit.
Seaweek
Students have been
doing an enquiry unit around the sea, investigating their own questions such
as: What makes a fish a fish? What makes the sea salty?
As part of our
investigation we will be visiting the beach on Thursday unless the weather is
torrential. If the trip is cancelled we will send a text message to all the
parents by 8.30am Thursday morning. If you don’t receive a message that means
we are going and plan to leave the school by 9.30am returning in time for the
bus. Please make sure children have a hat,
sunscreen, water bottle, togs, towels and a packed lunch. So no tavern lunches this week.
We are planning to do a beach
clean-up, investigate the rock pools, and swim but at this stage there will not be any snorkelling.
Friday Awards went to Anahera, Bear, Owen & Fari for
good work in maths. Bodhi for attitude and application. Vivienne for
story writing and Aria for great improvement in swimming.
Moana who missed the picture for a great attitude and
diligence in maths.
Project Energize
This morning Briar from Project
Energize came and did some lessons to do with minimising processed and packaged
food in lunch boxes, to encourage healthy eating and reduce litter.
Vision and Hearing
Friday 31st March June
Gangley is coming to the school to do the annual vision and hearing test on all
the 5 year old children. If you have concerns around your other child/rens
vision and hearing you can request to have them seen to as well.
ICT Agreements
Some children still need to
return these signed. The agreement shows they understand the rules and agree to
be safe and sensible when online.
They also agree to be
respectful and mindful of the equipment they are using.
Bus Agreements
The seating plan will come home
with your child and it will be with an agreement if you haven’t already signed
it. Please make sure it is returned by the end of the week.
Thames Valley Swimming
Congratulations to Awa Illingworth who has been selected
to represent the Peninsula Central Cluster in Thames next Wednesday 15th
March in the 10 tear old girls 25m freestyle.

Have a good
week, from Jean and the team.
