Upcoming Events

Welcome to Term 4!

It was lovely to see the sun shining today as we began our first full day at our new site. The bus trip to Champion Street went very smoothly and the children were relaxed and happy in the new hubs.  

Food For Thought

This free programme begins tomorrow.  Each home group will have two lessons about healthy eating. On Thursday we will be walking to Richmond Street New World to continue learning reading food labels for healthy eating.

The times for these visits has changed:

Hub 14/15:
Leaving school at 9am. 
Supermarket visit 9.30 to 10.30
Arriving back to school 11am

Hub 21/22:
Leaving school at 10.30am.
Supermarket visit  11.00 to 12.00
Arriving back to school 12.30

We urgently need more parent support  for our walk from Champion Street to Richmond Street New World. If you can help please email your child's home group teacher as soon as possible.

Thank you to the parents who have already offered to help. 
 
YEAR 5 -8 SEXUALITY EDUCATION
We advised you last term that, as part of our health curriculum, Teams Pōhutukawa and Kauri will be teaching sexuality education this term, beginning next week.
We are holding a parent evening  this Thursday 13 October at 6.30pm in the hall foyer.  Paul Scammell from Family Planning will explain the programme based on the resource THE SEXUALITY ROADSHOW.
If you have any questions or concerns about the programme this will be an excellent opportunity to find out more.
This is a parent only evening, however we can organise a separate room for your child to watch a DVD if you are unable to organise a babysitter. Please let the office know if you would like to take us up on this offer.
