Year 5/6 Camp volunteers urgently required

Volunteers Urgently Needed to Assist at Year 5/6 Camp 
Our Year 5 and 6s are heading out to Ngati Moki Marae (near Lake Ellesmere) on Wednesday 24 March at 4pm and returning Friday 26 March by 3pm. 

Adult volunteers are urgently required to supervise children and assist teachers. We need two more adults otherwise we face having to cancel the camp if we cannot get enough adults to make the ratio of adults to children. We will be deciding whether to proceed with this camp today.

The school will provide transport to and from the Marae as well as all meals.  Good clean fun and lots of laughs guaranteed. Please call the office on 347 6851 this morning if you can assist.

Rugby/Soccer Goal Posts - Volunteers required Friday between 11.30-1pm

We have new goal posts going in tomorrow and Paul Kissell and Andrew Fleck (the kind men leading this installation) require a couple of able-bodied adults to assist with holding the posts in place while they are lined up/etc. If you can help please call the office on 347 6851 or turn up after 11.30am on the school field (Burrows Field end of the school). Thank you.

Future Learning Survey

We have put a special survey on the school web site that is aimed at gaining your thoughts on what is great about our school, what you feel needs to be strengthened, plus your ideas for what our children's future learning environment needs to include. Thank you to those parents who have taken the time to respond and share their ideas already - we need more! 

Everything we do in our school is part of the 'curriculum' in one way or another, so it is important that everyone has a say in this process. We plan on giving children more of say in the design of how they learn in future, and one way we are starting this is to allow children to nominate others for showing excellence.

If you have the skills to connect a downpipe to a barrel and install a tap, then we'd love to hear from you. Hannah from Room 5 is showing you what we need. If you know someone who could help with this small project, please tap them on the shoulder and get them in touch with us.
