Newsletter 20th August 2009

Tena Koutou,

A reminder that we have assembly tomorrow. A big congratulations to our netball team who have gone through the season unbeaten. Well done to all the members, the coaches and parent supporters.

Congratulations to the winners of our $40.00 grocery vouchers. We had 31 families return their surveys and the names picked out were Haixin Li and Carol Tuwhangai. If they would like to contact the office to pick up your vouchers.

Something new: next week we are beginning a new type of newsletter that will go home every second week. This will have children’s work in it or ideas on how you can help your child. Keep your eye out for it!!

Cheers
Mike Darracott
Principal

Please ring the school on 455 8315 before 9am if your child is going to be absent (or late) from school. This means less time is taken up, trying to contact you if your child is
