Room 12 2022

Well, today was a day of mixed emotions having kids who have become mine go off to new teachers. Everyone came back happy so here is to a great year next year. Tuesday - regular day for our students Wednesday - Prizegiving in the morning then a shared lunch (please bring a plate) and a water fight in the afternoon. if you don't want to send a water gun then a sponge works well also. We will have a slip and slide out also. Togs or clothes that can get wet would be great. Thursday - Commissioning and then students to be picked up by 12:30 pm (if you wish to take your child after commissioning that is fine. Thanks again for a great year and for all the thoughtful gifts I really appreciate them. Jill

 Well, the last week of school for 2022. It has been a fantastic year with your children and I thank you for all the support you have given this school year. Your children have all grown so much both in confidence and shoe sizes. I am proud of each one of them and it has been awesome to support them in their growth this year. I hope that you are all excited to take a break with your whanau and enjoy the break.  Kids, you have been the best. Thanks for always taking risks, trying new things and becoming a team. You have all grown so much and I am very proud of you all. Have a great Christmas. Thanks again for a great year.

 I can't believe we are almost done for 2022.  Monday we have our mystery trip. All information needed was on a post from Dec 1. A huge thank you to all the people that have offered to drive. Our drivers should have all gotten an information slip on Thursday. The drivers are: Ang Mathis, Nora Leatherland, Taina Squibb, Mr. Walker, Tara Grant, and myself. Children will need NO devices on Monday, a change of clothes (labelled), or togs and a towel. Food and water for the day as there is nowhere to purchase anything. We are publishing a school magazine again this year, and this will be available during the last week of this term. At this stage, there are only to be 100 magazines printed. It will be a great memento of 2021. Orders are taken now with the cost for the magazine being $10.00.

Parents that are driving have been notified today.  Kids will need to be at school no later than 8:45 as we will be leaving the school then. Kids will be able to wear mufti and will need togs or a change of clothes and towel that is all labeled, please (this includes undies). We will need a backpack with the following sunscreen, hats, morning tea, lunch, water bottle, togs or change of clothes and towel. You will not need any form of device.
