Hi Parents and Whānau,

Gala season is officially here, and we’ve got some exciting updates making their way home in your child’s bag this week!

What to look out for:

Today: Your child will be coming home with the flyer for our upcoming Coroglen School Gala Day.
This Friday: They’ll bring home raffle tickets to sell for both our Grocery Hamper and the legendary Daisy Dung Drop! 🐄💩

A quick favour & reminder:

Extra Tickets: If you’re a master seller and need more tickets, contact me in the office and I’ll happily top you up!

Gala Day Flyers: If you want extra to put in your place of business or neighbours letterboxes, contact me in the office.

Hamper Donations: Please remember to send in your item donations for the grocery hamper raffle whenever you can. Every bit helps make it an amazing prize!

Thank you so much for all your help and support to make this Gala a huge success!

Warm regards,

Vicky

Dear Parents and Whānau,

It’s Book Week at school, and we are celebrating our love of reading all week long!

To add a bit of magic to the week, we would love all students to come to school dressed as their favourite book character on Thursday, 20th August.

Whether they want to be a wizard, a superhero, a classic fairytale character, or an animal from a beloved picture book, we can't wait to see their creativity shine.

Quick Details:

What: Book Character Dress-Up Day
When: Thursday, 20th August
Costumes: Keep it simple! DIY, reused, or recycled costumes are fully encouraged.

If your child has the book their character comes from, feel free to send it along with them for the day so they can share it with their class.

Thank you for helping us make reading fun!

Warm regards,

The Coroglen School Team

Good morning

 

It's wet out there! Wade Road and the road passing Whiti Farm Park are under water. No school today.

Be safe out there!

Dear Parents and Whānau,

We’ve had a couple of parents reach out asking if we can keep Pet Day on our school calendar this year!

Before we make a firm decision tomorrow, we need to gauge overall interest. If you would like Pet Day to go ahead, please let us know what farm animal you will be entering.  We need at least half the school to be entering a farm animal to get Pet Day on track.  Otherwise we will stick to the Gala Day and try again for Pet Day next year.

We also need parent help.

How to respond:

Email: office@coroglen.school.nz
Text: 0272 053 495
Please send us your response by Wednesday at 3:00 PM.

Once we tally the numbers, we’ll make a final call and let everyone know. Thank you for your quick input and support!

Warm regards,

Vicky / Jodi
