Week 3

Week 3

What an amazing day we had on Friday with Andrew Chinn joining us. He was

blown away by the singing during our Grandparent’s Mass - he stopped

singing himself during one of the songs so he could just enjoy hearing the

children sing. We had a great workshop with him and the afternoon concert

got everyone involved, smiling, singing and dancing along to the songs. Thank

you to all parents who were very generous with providing some lovely treats

for morning tea. It was wonderful to have so many grandparents and

grandfriends join us.

 


Thank you for having the children in their summer uniforms. Some mornings

are still cold so they may need jerseys.  Please make sure that your child has

their sunhat every day.  St Mary’s has the rule - no hat, no play.  So if they do

not have a hat, they need to sit in the shade.  All items of school uniform need

to be named please.


A gentle reminder that school starts at 8:45. If your child arrives after this time,

they will need to report to the school office to be recorded as present but late. 



From Mrs Holmes - Student Returning to school

Kia ora whanau,

We have a student returning to school on Monday who has had cancer.  He has been away

since 2021. His immunity has been compromised due to the treatment he has received and

he is particularly susceptible to chickenpox and measles. 

Any cases of chickenpox or measles, in the school community, needs to be reported to the

school office immediately to ensure his health is not compromised. He is looking forward to

coming back to school as are his friends.



Swimming

There is no swimming for all kakano classes over the next two weeks. The

middle and senior school children have instructors coming in to take them for

Make the Difference swimming lessons.
