<\/span>
We are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow morning and hearing about all the wonderful things the children have been up to over the holidays.  Our new hub is all set and ready to go and we are feeling very excited to welcome you and the children in.<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/span><\/div>
Access to the Buildings<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>
There is still construction work which is limiting the access to some of the buildings this term. The children will be able to enter school from:<\/span><\/span><\/div>
1. The Sandwich Road gate near the West Hub (by the bike racks) and walk up the park access road or enter at the old Dental Clinic entrance.  <\/span><\/span><\/div>
2. Norwood Street entrance and walk up the park access road.<\/span><\/span><\/div>
3. <\/span><\/span>Eastern Tce and walk up the pathway near the ponds. <\/span><\/span><\/div>
There will be two teachers outside at the beginning of each day this week to guide you to the right place and show the children their new routines.  <\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/span><\/div>
School Items<\/i><\/b><\/div>
The only items that your child will need at school tomorrow for their learning are:<\/div>
1. Home learning folder<\/div>
2. Drink bottle<\/div>
3. Warm jersey or waterproof jacket.<\/div>
Please remember that toys, fidgit spinners or trading cards are to stay at home.<\/div>

<\/div>
We will be working in our Home groups tomorrow across the hub. Each teacher will have a box for the children to put their home learning folders into by a teaching station. This will also be where the children will start and end the day. Drink bottles are to be kept on the shelves on the outside of the hub. <\/div>

<\/div>
Bags and Shoes<\/i><\/b><\/div>
Susan, Rebekah and Anna's children can put their bag and shoes on the park side of the building and Paulette and Mike's children can put their bags and shoes on the other side of the building (old staffroom side).<\/div>

<\/div>
Shoes and Change of Clothes<\/i><\/b><\/div><\/span>
As the hubs are shoe free please can the children bring a spare pair of named socks to school in their bag. This will replace the need for slippers. The children can keep their spare socks either inside their tote trays or school bags. <\/span><\/div>
Due to the very wet weather of late, we also actively encourage your child to wear gumboots to school on wet days. If your child likes to play football or games on the grassed areas, please make sure they have a spare pair of old shoes and clothes to change into at school as the park is extremely boggy at present. <\/div><\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>
Food Breaks<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>
This term we are trialing not having healthy food in the middle of the first block, so there is no need to send along a separate item of food.  It will be important for the children to have a good breakfast each morning so they feel satisfied until morning teatime. This term the children will be having morning tea at approximately 10:20am each day and then going out to play afterwards.  Lunch will be at the same time of 1.10pm and will follow the play \/ eat\/learn routine.<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/div>
There is a noticeboard that we will have on the outside of the hub (park side)  with anything you may need to know about the day ahead. We will send home a more detailed newsletter outlining the programme later on in the week.<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/span><\/div>
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow.<\/span><\/span><\/div>
