T2 Week 5 - Thank you

Thank you to all the parents who supported the teacher strike. Let's hope the union and the government are able to come to an agreement sooner rather than later.

Futsal will be continuing next week as well as the Jelly Bean music lessons. Students have been learning to play various songs on the glockenspiel. These lessons are held on a Tuesday after lunch. If you're free please pop by and have a listen - it's very impressive!

Reminders for next week:

  • Please get your voting papers posted off.
  • Futsal on Wednesday after morning tea.
  • Jelly Beans music lessons after lunch on Tuesday.
  • No school on Monday (Queen's Birthday)

Term 2 Week 2 - Thank you!

Thank you to all whanau who were able to join us at the goal-setting afternoon. If you weren't able to make it, your tamaraki would have brought home a paper copy of their goals. If the goals didn't quite make it home, ask your child to view it online, via their school log on.

Students thoroughly enjoyed our cycling lesson, even students who didn't know how to ride were riding by the end of the lesson - well done!

Week 3 will be another busy week! We have 'Empty Lunchbox Day' on Wednesday. This means that students bring an empty lunch box to school and together we will create healthy lunch options. Wednesday is also our second futsal lesson.  On Friday we have our Art Day. If you are keen to share your skills with our students please pop in at school and have a chat with me or Mr Naidoo.
