Week 9 - Term 2

Kia Ora families.

Welcome to week 9 of our 10 week term.

An exciting week ahead for us. On Wednesday we are making gingerbread men! Thanks so much to our parent helpers who will be the 'cooks' for us. Your time is so appreciated.

On Thursday we welcome all families in from 2pm to share in our learning since lockdown. Stay after to help your child ice and decorate their own gingerbread man. A SUPER low key event, really we are just so looking forward to inviting you all in again since level 1 has started. All welcome.

Next Term our older children in Nga Puna will be joining Sue and Vanessa in the Ti Kouka building for the remainder of the year. (Check your child's reading folder for more info, letters sent out Monday). They are still part of our Nga Puna whanau, just in a different location until we all join together again in Term Four. Sue and Vanessa have been working with us over the last few weeks and are well known to our Nga Puna children.

A big welcome to Ava who has started school with us in Nga Puna this week. Lovely to have you with us Ava.

 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.

Picnic at Edgar Macintosh Park tomorrow? (Friday the 18th) - Message from a parent.

  Kia ora koutou, Please see a lovely invitation for a get together after the assembly tomorrow. Unfortunately the teachers can’t attend as we still have to be ‘at school’ til 3!! Thank you so much to the parents who had this idea  a couple of nga Puna mums are going to have a picnic and paddle at Edgar Macintosh park tomorrow following the final assembly. All welcome. Would you consider sending a message to the nga Puna parents for anyone that is keen? I thought it might be a nice opportunity to meet one another and swap numbers for play dates before the holidays etc.  Many thanks Lynley, Fiona, Tina, Sue and Vanessa
