Week 9 (5-9 December)

Welcome to Week 9!!
Not sure where the year has gone but gosh the end of the term is fast approaching!

Reading and Library Books
ALL library books and class reading books were due back last week but we still have a large number outstanding. Please encourage children to continue to return these to us asap so they can be re-shelved before the end of term.
Our usual reading programme has stopped now but there will still be plenty of opportunities in class for reading especially reading and practising our song lyrics for our visit next week.

Rest Home Visit
A reminder that permission slips for this trip were also due last week. Any late returns to class teachers asap please.

We will be working hard this week on our singing - families might like to find the songs online and have a sing along at home!

Swimming
Monday - optional lunchtime swim for Year 1/2 children
Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday - Kohara swimming days
Please bring named togs and towels on these days.

Kapa Haka
This has now finished for the year.

Congratulations
We would like to congratulate the children for a fantastic effort at our Junior Athletics and also to all those who participated in the triathlon in the afternoon. You gave it your all, persevered with activities and did yourselves proud! There were some pretty tired children the following day!

Upcoming Events
