Senior Syndicate Parent Notice Term 2, 2009

 4th May, 2009

 

Dear Parents/Caregivers.

Kia Ora, I hope you managed to have a break over Easter.

As you will have noticed the buildings are starting to take shape with the steel frame for the new administration going up last week.

Topic

Our theme this term is ‘Healthy Water, What a Precious Resource.'

School Council

This year we have an enthusiastic and responsible group of class councillors.

They will be travelling to Telstraclear Pacific Events Centre to participate in the Young Leaders Conference this Thursday.

The school council have had two very successful fundraising ventures already. Proceeds from their fundraising have gone towards supporting the Jump Jam competition team and the new junior playground.  Thank you for your support.

Sport T Shirts

There are still a few sport shirts available. The cost of the T shirt is $12.

Please order using an envelope with the child's name and class space.

Other events Cross Country, Twin Streams Planting, Water Care educator visits, a pond visit, Star Dome visits, Times Tables Challenge, Spelling Bee and Whole School Syndicate Disco.

Reminders As the wet weather is upon us could you please ensure your children have a change of clothing in their school bag.
