Hi Everyone,

Thank you for your donations and supporting Gumboot day today. We learnt how to use pastels today, please feel free to pop in and admire our gumboot art. We did not manage to get to the library today, i will try to get us a slot early next week, so library books will stay at school this weekend.

Next week - halfway through the term already, a bit scary.

We have the fire brigade visiting us on Tuesday as a wrap up to our Firewise unit- this will be exciting and we are looking forward to sharing what we have learned with the firefighters.

Wednesday our friends from Waitakere kindy will visit us to find out what school is like and on Thursday we welcome our visitors for their second visit. They will join our class the following week.

On Thursday we welcome you all to join with us on the bottom field at 1:45 and follow your children as they show off their athletic skills. If the weather causes us to cancel you will be notified via skool loop and Seesaw.

Have a lovely weekend.

See you next week

Jen

Kia ora,

On Thursday 3rd December, it is the Year 5-8 students' last house day of the year. All students in the school are welcome to come dressed up in their house colours to celebrate the senior school house day and show pride for their school house. All students will be eating lunch and morning tea together in their house groups on the courts. Only senior school students (Years 5-8) will be participating in the house day events.

There is no pressure for students to go out and buy any extras for costumes. Just use what you have at home.

We're now seeking expressions of interest for Basketball Season 1, 2027.

🏀 U7s (born 2020-2021) - Game day is Fridays
🏀 U9s (born 2018-2019) - Wednesdays
🏀 U11s (born 2016-2017) - Mondays or Tuesdays (subject to grading)
🏀 U13s (born 2014-2015) - Thursdays

Please note that registering your interest helps us determine team numbers and enter teams into the competition.

Before registering, please carefully consider your family's ability to commit for the full season. Late withdrawals can make it very difficult to finalise teams, may leave teams short of players, and can result in disappointment for other children who are keen to participate. We appreciate your support in ensuring registrations reflect a genuine commitment to play.

We look forward to another fantastic basketball season! 🏀
