Week 3

Week 3 already! I hope you have all had a relaxing weekend and are ready for another action packed week!

We are supposed to be having swimming this week, however our school pool is currently having heating problems. At this stage, we will not be swimming tomorrow but have our fingers crossed the pool will be back up and running later in the week. I will let our class know as soon as I know more information. Thank you for your understanding and patience with this.

Homework Project Due on Tuesday - the homework task that was given out last week is due on Tuesday. Children will be presenting their idea of a local issue and solution to the class, and we will be voting on which idea we would like to use for our next Student Volunteer Army project. I am looking forward to hearing all about the brilliant ideas our children have come up with!

Athletics practise continues tomorrow afternoon and on Wednesday. Please bring proper school uniform PE gear for this. Our Athletics day is scheduled for Monday next week and we are in desperate need of Parent Helpers. Please look at the notice below and contact Lorna if you are able to help out. It will be hugely appreciated!

Enjoy your evenings and I look forward to having another week filled with fun and successes!

Nga Mihi,
Nicole Hunter


THIS SATURDAY:
November 3rd, we are having a working bee at our school. We have a number of jobs on our list ranging from handy-man jobs, maintenance on the playgrounds, putting together an aviary, painting the boundary fence on Ranolf St, building a frame around the sandpit, painting the container, constructing a fence bordering the library grounds, painting Kakano’s playhouse, clearing the hall gutters (we have hired a scissor lift) and I am sure there will be plenty more jobs to do. Come along and meet other parents, enjoy a morning tea and a delicious lunch. Children are welcome also. For catering purposes please let the office know if you can assist, even if it is just for an hour or two.
