Those children who will be remaining at school are reminded to bring their togs along as Whaea Anne and Whaea Beeby will be taking small groups down to the pool in the afternoon for a swim. There will be minimal supervision available and buses will run as normal.

Going Digital
Attached to the newsletter is an information pamphlet about “Going Digital”. This is the change from the old analogue TV signal to digital TV which means that all New Zealanders will get better pictures and more channels, no matter where they live.
Late ChildrenIt is important that ALL children are at school by 8:50am. This is to ensure they don’t miss any important notices or information in the morning.
Health NursePublic health nurses work in all Northland schools, and offer a broad range of services to your children, including health assessments, vaccinations and referrals to other agencies and GPs. They are experienced registered nurses with training in specific areas related to child and youth health. If you have further questions about this, or do NOT want your child to benefit from this service, please
call Lorreen Broughton [PHN 0-800-5374342 or 0-21-441958] to discuss further.
Swimmers in the weekend
Please call the police or my cell phone if you see anyone in our swimming pool over the weekend. Our children have missed swimming sessions because unwelcomed swimmers leave all sorts of debris in the pool making it unsafe to swim in first thing on Monday.
