Making a Difference Swimming Programme

 This week we enjoyed our daily session of swimming with Tara and her team.  Well done to those who remembered their togs every day.  I was very impressed with the respectful attitude of all of Room 17.  You listened and followed Tara's instructions well and tried your best, even if it was something challenging for you.  A great example of practicing resilience.

Here are a few photos from the week.




















































Remember it is our normal swimming week this week, so bring your swimming gear every day.

J uly 25, 2021   Weekly Notices, Term 3, Week 1 Namaste and welcome back to the commencement of Term 3 2021. I hope all children enjoyed a lovely deserved break from school and are prepared for another term of important learning. It is a good time for a reminder that the world is still in the midst of a serious pandemic and that we should feel privileged to live in a country with no community transmission. We will be reminding children to still take basic health precautions like washing hands regularly, using hand sanitiser and tissues and coughing or sneezing into the inside of elbows. We ask you to reinforce this message at home as well and to please keep your child home if they are sick. Life Education begins at St Mary's on Monday, featuring Katie and of course Harold the Giraffe. All Kahikatea Middle School classes will have an opportunity to visit the Life Education van for lessons. You may wish to ask your child about what they have been learning in Life Education. Rep...
