Disco - Wednesday 30th November

 

Week 7

We welcome back the senior classes from camp. By all accounts they had a great time last week. 

With the changeable weather and swimming at the moment the children are often misplacing clothing. It makes it so much easier if they are named, especially sandals and fleeces/jerseys.

Week 5

Library Books

We have library every Friday and it is expected children return their books.  Please ensure your child has packed their books ready to be returned.

Keeping well

We are already half way through the term and we seem to be reaching higher temperatures. Please can you ensure your child brings a named water bottle so they keep hydrated. Also, please can you remind your child to bring their hat. St Mary’s has the rule - no hat, no play. So if they do not have a hat, they need to sit in the shade. 

We have Covid going through our school again.  Please make sure if your child is unwell they stay at home.  This stops the spread of germs and keeps other well.

Junior Kapa haka

Well done to all our children who participated in the Kahui Ako Ahurei on Friday. Our Junior roopu stole the show and looked awesome in their new outfits. You sang so beautifully and we were all so proud of you. Thanks especially to Mrs Thomson for organising the group-she did a wonderful job.
