We had a great week with our tamariki despite some challenging weather and the Cross Country and School Disco being postponed. We would like to thank you for your understanding. <\/p>

Nuts \/ nut-based products at school<\/b><\/p>

This is another reminder that the Kahikatea team has students with nut allergies, one of these is life-threatening. Therefore, we are asking that nuts and nut-based products are NOT brought to school by your child. Nut-based products include items like Nutella, peanut butter, muesli bars containing nuts etc.<\/p>

The team is also aware that some children may have other dietary requirements. Please talk with your child\u2019s Homegroup teacher if this is the case so that they are aware and we can create a specific plan to support your child if need be.<\/p>

Our policy at school is that children only eat their own food and not share. Teachers are reminding children about this, along with reminders about handwashing and putting food wrappings in their lunch boxes to take home.<\/p>

If you have any questions please contact your child's Homegroup teacher.<\/p>

Thank you for your support as 'We Get There Together'.<\/p>

Music unit<\/b><\/p>

The children have been super excited and engaged with our Music unit, which has focused on various elements of music, and different types of musical instruments. Most tamariki have designed and made their own instrument and today finished these by decorating them. Children who have been absent due to illness will have an opportunity to work on this next week.<\/p>

On Monday, there will be a percussion performance called 'Strike to School' at our kura. We will get to see how people use body percussion and handmade instruments to create music.<\/p>
