ShowQuest
We are less than a week from showtime. Please click here for important information and a form that everyone needs to read and complete. Costumes need to be at school tomorrow, Wednesday.
Getting Muddy
As winter approaches Beckenham Park is developing some muddy patches. The children are very good at finding these! If your child tends to come home muddy or has the potential for this, please make sure they have a spare school shirt and pair of pants in their bag.
Hamper Donation
We would like every Kauri family to donate a luxury item from the supermarket to our Quiz Night hampers. These hampers will be raffled on the night and we may also sell tickets beforehand. Please send an item along to the hub before the end of next week. We will have a collection box in the hub.
Quiz Night ticket sales opened in the weekend and we have already sold over half of the tickets. If you plan to enter a team, do so now.
Uniform
Staff Only Day
A reminder that our first staff-only day for this term is next Friday, May 21st. School will be closed for students on this day.
Photo Gallery
Here are some pics from our first dress rehearsal last week.
Cross Country Tomorrow
There is rain in the forecast for tomorrow afternoon. This is not forecast to arrive until later into the afternoon and so should not affect our whole school cross country tomorrow. Our plan is to go ahead and reassess tomorrow as needed. This might mean that we need to make a postponement call tomorrow morning. If we decide to postpone to Thursday, we will send out an email and put a post onto our kura Facebook page. If you do not hear from us, assume that cross country is on.
- Year 5 to 8 races will not start before 1:30
- Year 8 will race first.
- Year 0 - 4 races will not start before 2:15.
- Year 4 will go first.
Children can race in their red school polo or their house shirt. Shoes that are comfortable to run in should be worn to school.
If you are able to join us tomorrow afternoon, please support your child in returning to their team's base area after you have congratulated them on their efforts.
Nic will be at the park with some Wheely Good Coffee for purchase.
