Weekly notices Week 3, Term 3

 WEEK 3 TERM 3 2021

Kia ora,

It's hard to believe that we are entering into Week three and the start of August. The daffodils outside R12 have started to bloom, which means longer days and warmer weather to come. Today is the  Feast Day of Mary MacKillop and we will be celebrating this on Friday. Last Friday middle school were part of the Novena to Our Lady, in preparation for the Feast of the ‘Assumption of Mother Mary into heaven’ on 15th August the kids were amazing, they read and sang beautifully 

Next Sunday, the parish has a Māori Miha (Māori Mass) at 10.00 am followed by a procession carrying the statue of Mother Mary around the Church and our school. All students from the schools are invited to join the procession with their parents at 11.00 am in front of St Mary’s Church. Staff are also invited to be part of this. There is a shared lunch after the procession that everyone is invited to and families are asked to bring a plate to share. 

Thank you for attending the 3 way conferences. The conferences are always a good time for parents to hear what their children have done and hear what the goals are for the next little while. 

We will be starting our KOS programme throughout the school. This Monday night Viv Sutton is hosting a ‘Keeping Ourselves Safe’ Information meeting:

There is a community hui at St Mary's School on Monday 9 August, 5.15-6pm, in Room 14, where I will explain what the Keeping Ourselves Safe programme entails, and share some tips about keeping your young ones safe. You are encouraged to attend.

The library day is on a Wednesday.  (rm 17 Kapa haka on Thursday).  Please help your child to remember their books so that they can take out new ones.

Please if you are eating yummy apples and need a chart let Mrs. Dinniss know and she will print you off a form. We receive P.E. gear for the stickers collected.  

Have an enjoyable week.

Mrs Tiedt and Team Kahikatea

  Kia ora whānau,  Congratulations on making it to the final week of what has been a fun and turbulent school year. Thank you all for the time, dedication and effort you have put into your children's learning, particularly during the lockdown period.  Fort building, dwellings and enclosures were the flavour of the week last week. We even had a few "mini classrooms" built.  Lots of fun and imaginative games were played, some of which lasted all day. We sent school reports home on Friday which included a slip with the name of your child's teacher for 2022. All students will be meeting their new teacher and classmates on Monday.  Coming up this week:  Monday - Duathlon  All children will need to bring their togs, towel, hat and sneakers. They can wear their house colours or PE uniform, please ensure all items are named. Unfortunately due to Covid restrictions, there will be no spectators allowed. Tuesday - Prizegiving.
