Operation Christmas Child
Our school is taking part in sending boxes to needy children. These children will probably never again receive a gift such as this or a Christmas gift, in their lifetime.
We are encouraging our students to get involved, to look beyond themselves, to foster attitudes of compassion and giving. Students are encouraged to earn extra pocket money by doing odd jobs etc. It doesn't take much - but it goes a long way and speaks volumes to children in need.
Thank you to all those students and families who have already given. Your generosity is much appreciated.
Final collection date is 17 October, first week back next term.

Term 2 is Terrific!!!
16 May 2013
Dear Families, We had an amazing Athletics day !
Thank you to all the parents who came to support and who assisted with transport, and for all those who kindly offered to assist. Thanks especially to Elise Jordan, Mr Mawson, Mr Elsmore and Ness Lawgun for all their hard work!
Primary Parent Meeting – Monday evening, 10th June, which will be a wonderful opportunity for us to meet with you. Parent-teacher interviews will take place week 2 next term, and mid-year reports go out just before then.
The theme this term is God is Our Forgiving. You may like to remind children of God’s wonderful grace and forgiveness, and how He wants us to forgive others.
We will be learning about the Treaty of Waitangi for Social Studies this term, States of Matter in Science, Poetry for Literacy, Time and Fractions for Maths and the children are doing a Health unit on being ‘Fire-Wise.’ They may discuss a home evacuation plan with you.
God bless, Joanne Yuhayco and Shelley Campbell
