Kauri Whānau: Term 4 Week 9

What a fabulous day we had at Corsair Bay today. A number of children commented that we should be doing days like this more often! Many thanks to the parents who helped to supervise, especially those who went swimming. Check out the photos at the end of this post.

On Tuesday, the children will be bringing school books, artwork and stationery home. Please make sure they have plenty of room in their bags.

Year 8 Party:

 On Monday we are having a pool and pizza party for the Year 8s at Georgie's house, which is up by Cashmere Primary School. Please check the map below for how to get there, via walking through the school grounds. It would be good to come with togs on under clothes.

Stationery Home Tomorrow

Hi everyone,

We will be sending home student stationery tomorrow in your child's home learning folder. Please take the time to look in this folder as we will also be returning any unused stationery and most of this items will be able to be used in 2019. Make sure you keep them in a safe place so you know what to order in 2019!
If your child's folder is currently at home, can you please send it to school tomorrow (Friday 14th December) so we have a place for the stationery to go.

Thank you so much!
