Reminder: Cross Country Wednesday 18th May
The first race will be starting at 12.00 pm approx (she’s normally all over by 1pm). The event will be on sun, rain, hail or snow – this is what cross country running is all about. It will only postponed if the grounds are closed due to conditions.
Please have children come to school dressed in their P.E. gear, sports shoes and polar fleece. A spare change of clothes for back at school would also be a good idea if it is wet. Children will need to bring a drink bottle. If your child requires an inhaler or any other medication, please make sure they have this with them.
All children in the senior girl’s and senior boy’s races (y5 and 6) will be competing for Cross Country trophies, donated by the Pearce Family. Only 10 and 11 year olds are eligible to represent our school at the Eastern and Southland Cross Country Event.

Year 5 and 6 Rippa Tournament …

Hi Guys, 

Wow – we had so many kids keen for this opportunity, it was crazy! Sadly I’m only allowed to send one team, and a team of 24 kids is a tad large. For this reason, I’ve pulled the 5’s as they will get a chance to go next year. Mrs Broome pulled the other names out of the hat (5 girls and 5 boys). If one of them goes down with the Vid, I will draw another player from the hat. 

The names drawn were: Kate Hoar, Gus Turnbull, Moss Wilson, Mason Chittock, Drake Newton, Zavier Hansen, Olivia Sanson, Kate Wilson, Mia Brock and Lucie Drummond. 

I have sent parents an email – please read and fill out the form in the link (for registration) – it’s not in my email it’s part of Hua’s original email.

Cheers,
Mal 🙂

Term 2 – orange traffic light setting

Dear whānau,
We hope that you managed to fit some relaxing family time into the Easter holidays. We are looking forward to having our children back for term 2, which will be filled again with lots of great learning experiences including Cross Country, swimming and Matariki.
You’ll be aware that, as a country, we are now in the Orange traffic light setting, however, COVID-19 is still widespread in our community, the Ministry of Education and our Southern DHB still strongly encourage that masks continue to be worn by ākonga (students) and staff in Years 4 and above when indoors. As caregivers, aside from those with exemptions, we would also ask that you wear masks when you are indoors onsite e.g. classrooms, the office and the church and that you continue to keep your wee people home when they are unwell.
We will regularly reassess this, taking into account community case numbers and public health advice. We are hoping it will be a more settled term where we can enjoy sharing assemblies, whole school Masses, and the other cool things we get up to with you – in person!

God bless,
Mallory 

Reminder for tomorrow … don’t forget your gold coin donation for a good cause!
