Marae Stay
What a busy week! Our thanks to all our school whānau who supported the Marae Noho for all classes in some way. We were really fortunate to have the opportunity to visit such a beautiful local marae that many of us connect to. Teachers have decided because of the success of this noho that is likely that we begin each year with a visit to Kohewhata Marae.

Hockey
We are looking for coaches for weekend Hockey at Lindvart Park Turf. We have 3 divisions.
Y0-2 - 5/6 years old, Y3-4 - 7-8 years old, Y5-6 - 9-
11 years old. We would like to have a team for each grade if possible. Perhaps parents could buddy up with someone to help coach a team. No knowledge of Hockey is needed as you can learn along the way. We will only have teams entered if we have the coaches. If you are interested or have any questions please see Whaea Kelli or Whaea Lydia. Alternatively leave a message at office.
Weetbix TryathlonThis event will take place on Sunday April 10th. Those children who are interested have been practicing already for this event. Your child may come home with a permission slip that needs to be returned immediately please so we can get organised. We are looking for parent help on this day to make it easier for carting bikes out to the event which will be in Waitangi in front of Te Ti Marae. If you are able to help with this event by way of transport or, caged trailer please leave a message at the office for Whaea Kelli or Whaea Lydia.
Room 17 to Open
Due to the influx of 5 year olds, it is likely that in Term 2 we will be opening another Year 1 class in Room 17. Until the end of the term we have employed Crystal Harris as a Teacher Aide in Room 2. There may be about 8 children who are currently in Room 2 that will be moved to Room 17 gradually at the beginning of the term. Whānau of these children will be contacted by Whaea Becs.
NetballWe are looking for anyone keen to take junior and senior netball on a Saturday next term. Teaming up with a buddy might help. Please contact the school office if you are interested.
Breakfast ClubEach morning before school from 8 am to 8.30 am we have breakfast club in the hall.
Nau mai haere mai!
