Pounamu Newsletter
Week 9- Term 2 2022
Kia ora e te whānau,
Thank you for all your support shown for Jumping June. We have been enjoying learning skipping and jumping games as part of our daily fitness.
As well as the benefit to our children, a sizeable donation has been raised by families for the Heart Foundation.
Thursday, weather permitting is a school wide Jumping June day. We will be partaking in a range of activities run by Rakau Nui children and teachers.
Unfortunately there has been a bit of sickness in Pounamu with flu and stomach upsets. Please do not send your child to school if they are sick. We appreciate your support with this.
Have a safe and warm week!
Ngā mihi,
Pounamu Teachers.
Room 4 update
NZ Playhouse - The Emperor's New Clothes
We are looking forward to having NZ Playhouse come to the school at the end of the first week next term to perform their Emperor's New Clothes play for the whole school. The tamariki thoroughly enjoy these shows, which allow us to bring the experience of the theatre to the children.
The Emperor's New Clothes performs on Wednesday 27 July at 11.45. The cost per student is $6.00 per person. Please pay via Kindo, internet banking or EftPos at the office.
Covid - Orange level expectations
We are able to have syndicate assemblies inside.
Parents are allowed onto the grounds but are asked to wear masks if they are coming into a classroom.
