Kia Ora!

I would like to say a great big thanks to all the paents who offered and who came on our trip to lake Opouahi. It was a fabulous day and one that the children will remember for a very long time. The children were wonderful and were great ambassadors for the school.
It is great to see the slippers coming to school now that the weather is getting colder.
I will be away on Thursday and Friday. Mrs Gross will be in to teach the children. I will be having a proud Mum moment watching my daughter graduate.

Have a great week,
Kerran

We have just finished a fabulous trip to Lake Opouahi. The children had a fabulous time. It is a magical place. We were given the opportunity to pat a kiwi and even got to see a bush weta. Here are some photos of our trip.

Hopefully this week it is going to be fine on Tuesday for our trip to Lake Opouahi. The children will need to wear warm clothing as it will be very cold up there.
the children are allowed to wear slippers inside during school hours.
you are most welcome to come into the class to look at your child’s books.
See you soon,

Kerran

It is great to be back. We have a very exciting term ahead of us with the school production- Music Through the Ages being held at the end of ther term in the Hastings Opera House. The whole school has a part in the show including us.
The children have made a great start to the term and are working very hard.

The trip to Lake Opouahi is on the 8th of May if the weather is fine.
Science in the Van is on in the hall on May the 1st.

Thank you

I am really impressed with the amount of work the children are doing at home. It is making a difference to your child’s learning in the class.

Lake Opouahi is on the 3rd of April.

I am happy for children to wear slippers in the classroom during class times.

Thank you

We have a great week ahead of us this week! Hopefully, the weather will remain fine for Tuesday so that we can have a lovely day up at Lake Opouahi. Many thanks to those parents who have offered to help out with supervision. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Please remember:

Warm clothing, great walking shoes, a jacket, lunch and morning tea and a bottle of water.

Thank you
