Term 4 - Week 3

- October 27, 2020

Kia Ora families. Thank you so much for your support and understanding as we moved into our junior Ngā Puna space at the end of last week. Yet again the resilience of our children and willingness from them to accept change is just outstanding. You should feel very proud of them all. We had a wonderful day in our new setting today. It was lovely to re connect with friends from the beginning of the year and with our other Junior teachers. Our children walked through our lovely new building today to make connections with things that are the 'same' and things that are 'different'. The general consensus was people are the same, places are different! They did so well. This Friday the 30th of October is our offical opening of our new school with ribbon cutting and all! It starts at 1:30 pm. You are welcome to take your child home early after this event. See the note below for more info. Also below is a copy of the note sent home today. Have a lovely short week all...

Term 4 - Week 4

- November 01, 2020

Kia Ora everybody. What a lovely week we had last week in our Ngā Puna space. It's great to watch the children share their interests with others whilst taking full advantage of what's out and on offer during learning choices. We are on the hunt for ice - cream containers that are golden in colour. We have plenty of the blue and white. If you have any floating around home please pass them on to us, it would be greatly appreciated. A big welcome to Waimairi School to Grace this week. Happy birthday Grace and welcome to Ngā Puna. Ngā Puna visited Wai iti (the library) today. A gorgeous space in our new building, right next door to the coffee shop. It's great to have a library in use by the school again and the kids enjoyed visiting.
