The festival runs from the 25th to 27th October. Students will have the opportunity to perform alongside around 1000 other other children. The CSM Festival is a wonderful opportunity for our children to develop their musical talents and to contribute towards an event that is an institution in Canterbury. There are bound to be many parents that have fond childhood memories of participating in this festival themselves! The theme for this year is \u2018Whatever the Weather\u2019.<br \/>If your child is keen to be in the choir, they will be bringing home a letter next week outlining our goals and including some information and dates for the Music Festival. If you support them being in the choir, please sign and return the form, and ensure that they understand that they are committing to being in the choir through to the Music Festival in Term 4.<br \/><i>Katie Chapman<\/i><br \/><h4>Parking and Safety on Sandwich Road<\/h4><\/div><div>It is drawn to our attention almost every day that a number of people are parking on the broken yellow lines adjacent to the pedestrian crossing at our front entrance on Sandwich Road.&nbsp;<\/div><div>Parking close to the crossing puts the children who are using the crossing at great risk - they are less visible to oncoming traffic, and they need to step out onto the crossing before they can see traffic that is coming.<\/div><div>We rely on every member of our community to follow the road rules and keep all of our children safe.

This has allowed many opportunities for us to get to know each other, discover the ways in which we are unique, and the commonalities that we share. During writing, we have been expressing our identity through biographical poems.

These competitions will be taking place annually and are designed by New Zealand teachers for New Zealand students based on the New Zealand curriculum.<\/p>\n<p>The competitions are administered by the centre for Evaluation and Monitoring (CEM) which is a not-for-profit Centre at the University of Canterbury. The competitions are open to all Year 5-10 students in English, Mathematics and Science. Students can enter in one or more subjects. It provides teachers, parents and students an independent, comprehensive record of a student&#8217;s performance. &nbsp;Your child&rsquo;s teacher will supervise the online tests which will take place in the last 2 weeks of Term 2 at school.<\/p>\n<p>Certificates will be sent to all participating students and prizes awarded to top students. These will be supplied by the University of Canterbury.

We will be starting the year with a pop music focus. Once the Christchurch Schools&rsquo; Music Festival song books are released, we will spend our time learning the songs and perfecting our singing for this. The festival runs from the 25th to 27th October. Students will have the opportunity to perform alongside around 1000 other other children. The CSM Festival is a wonderful opportunity for our children to develop their musical talents and to contribute towards an event that is an institution in Canterbury. There are bound to be many parents that have fond childhood memories of participating in this festival themselves! The theme for this year is &lsquo;Whatever the Weather&rsquo;.<br \/>If your child is keen to be in the choir, they will be bringing home a letter next week outlining our goals and including some information and dates for the Music Festival. If you support them being in the choir, please sign and return the form, and ensure that they understand that they are committing to being in the choir through to the Music Festival in Term 4.<br \/><i>Katie Chapman<\/i><\/p>\n<h4>Parking and Safety on Sandwich Road<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div>It is drawn to our attention almost every day that a number of people are parking on the broken yellow lines adjacent to the pedestrian crossing at our front entrance on Sandwich Road.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>Parking close to the crossing puts the children who are using the crossing at great risk &#8211; they are less visible to oncoming traffic, and they need to step out onto the crossing before they can see traffic that is coming.<\/div>\n<div>We rely on every member of our community to follow the road rules and keep all of our children safe.
