Kia ora whānau,
Welcome back to Term 2! We have an exciting term ahead of us with lots of exciting things planned, starting with our whole school cross country event next Tuesday. We have been practising every day since the start of term and the children are raring to go!
Cross Country
The weather is looking good for next Tuesday afternoon (14th May) so fingers crossed our Cross Country goes ahead! The Year 4 children are due to start at 2:15 followed by the Year 3 children approximately 10 minutes later. Please make sure that your child has a fleece to wear on the day while they are waiting to take part and after their turn. They will also need a drink bottle. We look forward to seeing you there if you are able to make it.
Health
For the first half of this term, we are focusing on health and healthy living for our Inquiry. We are looking at the importance of drinking water, physical exercise, sleep and eating the right foods. For one activity, we are planning our own healthy lunchboxes! Check out these balanced lunchbox ideas here.
There is lots more great information about health and children on the Health Info website, including breakfast ideas, keeping active and snack foods.
Staying Safe Online
Netsafe has created an Online Safety Parent Toolkit so parents, families and whānau have all the information they need to talk about online safety.
If you or anyone in your whānau needs support, you can contact Netsafe.
