It was so lovely to be back at school with our tamariki last week. Everyone was very quick to settle in to our daily routines. Thank you for ensuring your child was dressed in their summer uniform and prepared for learning.
HATS - ARE COMPULSORY THIS TERM
No hat = No play. Please ensure your child’s hat is clearly named.
Swimming
We are all swimming this term - week on, week off. Unless you have a medical note to explain why you are not swimming, please bring your togs, towel and a bag to put them in, everyday in the weeks that your class is on.
Kakano 1 & 3 - you are swimming this week.
Kakano 1 & 2 - even weeks (2, 4, 6, 8, 10)
Kakano 3 - odd weeks (1, 3, 5, 7, 9)
Please note: Kakano 1 are swimming at 8:45 a.m.
Loud Shirt Day
This Friday our Young Vinnies are having a Loud Shirt Day in support of NZ Hearing Association. Coloured shirts are to be worn over their uniforms. Gold Coin donation.
Where does the money go?
The Hearing House is based in Auckland and provides services to families living north of Turangi, and the Southern Cochlear Implant Programme is based in Christchurch and in Wellington to provide services to families in the rest of the country. Loud Shirt Day donations go to the region in which they were raised.
Working Bee - from Mr Macmillan
We intend to have a working bee on Saturday October 31st. There are a number of jobs that need to be done. Children are welcome and we will have a BBQ lunch.
Religious Education
This week in RE we will be looking at Creation. We will be looking at the story from the book of Genesis. We will be thinking about all the special gifts God has made for us.
Mathematics
Within Numeracy we are learning about patterns and relationships. We will be using skip counting to solve simple multiplication problems
