PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Kia ora koutou,


Vests

It has been great to see all the children wearing vests to and from school. Children can be easily seen in vests when they walk to and from school. This makes it easier at school crossings around the town and motorists can see the students and stop safely.


Breakfast in Schools

On Wednesday, 1 December there will be no Breakfast in Schools that day.


Nga mihi,

Library Books

It's that time of the year again when all the school library books are being recalled for the end of year stocktake. If your child has any school books at home then please return them to school as soon as possible to avoid any lost book charges ($20 per book), being added to your school account.

Thank you very much.


School Accounts

Could School Accounts please be paid before the end of the school year.

We are changing to a new management system next year so it would be great to get the accounts tidied up in 2021.
