Easter Fundraiser sales.Dear Parents/Caregivers,
Just touching base to see how the sales are going. It is important that this is a "wrap" before the end of term, and we are mindful that Year 6 students will be away on Camp between 3-5 April. This is a time based fundraiser i.e. centred around the Easter Celebration and in particular the "Easter Bunny Hunt". As sales are complete please return monies to the office in a named fundraising envelope, or envelope that is clearly marked with your child's name and room number. Your assistance in supporting this fundraiser is greatly appreciated. regards 27 March 2019
HEATH NOTICE – Hand, foot and mouth disease Dear Parents and Caregivers, We have been advised today that we have a student confirmed with Hand, foot and mouth disease. Hand, foot and mouth disease can be a mild or a very serious illness. It is caused by a virus, and is most common in children under 10. Hand, foot and mouth disease appears most often in warm weather (which we have had a lot of lately) – usually in the summer or early autumn. Symptoms Mild fever is usually the first sign of hand, foot and mouth disease. This starts 3–5 days after your child has been exposed to the disease. After the fever starts, your child may develop other symptoms, including:
Treatment The only medicine recommended for hand, foot and mouth disease is paracetamol. Most blisters disappear without causing problems. In the mouth, however, some may form shallow, painful sores that look similar to cold sores. If your child’s mouth is sore, don’t give them sour, salty or spicy foods. Make sure they drink plenty of liquids to avoid getting dehydrated. Prevention Hand, foot and mouth disease is spread by coughing or sneezing, or by contact with mucus, saliva, blisters or the bowel movements of an infected person. Children are contagious (‘catching’) for around 7–10 days. Keep your child home from school or childcare until blisters have dried. If blisters are able to be covered and the child is feeling well, they will not need to be excluded.
Call the Healthline 0800 611 116 if you are unsure of what you should do.

COMMUNITY SURVEY - Uniform survey
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
There has been ongoing interest from parents/caregivers about replacing the light blue polo shirt, because of the difficulties with cleaning stains off the polo shirt fabric.
The Board of Trustees has decided to survey parents on this issue.
Please complete the attached survey form (one form per family) and return by Friday, 8 March. The Board requires at least 66% support for changing the colour in order to go ahead.
Please note that should the survey result in a change of colour, it won’t happen overnight; there will need to be a lead-in time with uniform suppliers and a reasonable transition phase where children will be allowed to wear the light blue top if the survey results in a change in colour of the Salford School Tee.

BYOD Options for 2019 - Students in Rooms 4 - 6
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
You have all expressed an interest in purchasing a BYOD Option for a student for 2019.
Salford have looked carefully at how to get the best options for families, i.e.
Bulk purchase vs Individual purchase.
The risk with the bulk purchase through the school was the warranty and repair, and there was very little difference in the actual end cost for families.
Therefore, in the attachment are two options for you to consider.
1 - purchasing through Officemax, only the items you require. i.e. you may already have headphones that your child can use, and a bag for the device.
2 - purchasing through Noel Leeming who offer very competitive prices, and these can be purchased on a 12 month payment basis.
Remember that Noel Leeming will price match. There are a number of online suppliers and if you find the latest technology model i.e. the HP Chrome G6 touch Chromebook at an alternate supplier for less than the $469.00 they are quoting, print your find and take the copy down to the store for the price match option.
Any questions, please do not hesitate to email through. This email address is being monitored.
Have a lovely christmas and safe holiday break.
kind regards
Judi Devine

Year 4, 5 and 6 2019 - BYOD
Friday 16th November 2018
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Subject: Students Devices for 2019
IT devices have become a significant part of our programmes in the Senior Syndicate. In today’s world we have to teach our students to research online and present information and to code, as part of the Digital Technologies Curriculum. We would like to use online programmes for our homework programmes as well.
Therefore to ensure that the students get the most value out of our learning time it is strongly encouraged that our Year 4-6 students own their own devices and bring them to school on a daily basis. These devices will continue to be a significant part of your child’s schooling once they go off to high school.
If you are considering purchasing a device as a Christmas present can we please suggest that you purchase one with the following specifications:
Chrome book minimum screen size of 11 inches
Running iOS11.0+, or Android 6.0+
Battery life of 5 - 6 hours
Wireless Capability
Minimum storage of 32GB
Google Chrome installed
Protective case is strongly recommended
Keyboard
Can be updated to the latest operating system
Headphones
Optional: Wireless Mouse
If students already have their own laptop or other device you may think is suitable then please contact the classroom teacher to discuss if this will be appropriate. Unfortunately ipad’s and tablets would not be appropriate for our purposes.
Thank you for your continued support.
Yours truly,
Megan Roulston
Senior Team Leader, Head of Literacy, Head of Inquiry Learning and EOTC Co-ordinator
Attached is some information relating to BYOD and if you would be interested in being considered as part of a bundle purchase, please fill in the form below.

Pre loved Uniform
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
The stocks of "pre loved" uniform is very low, and we wonder if there are any uniforms items that are no longer used in the bottoms of draws.
We have a young lady joining us next week, who will be in year 6 and therefore only with us for 10 short weeks.
Thanking you.

UNWELL CHILDREN
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Please keep unwell students at home. We have had to send a number of students home today unwell, some of whom presented symptons on arrival at school.
We have a tummy bug moving through the classrooms. Stand down period for a child presenting with vomiting/diarrhea is 24/48 hours - dependent on last episode.
If children are not kept home, the risk of the illness passing to other children in a school environment is high.
Thanking you for your consideration.

NZ Playhouse - Red Riding Robyn Hood
was enjoyed by students at Salford on Thursday 15th March.
"King George has lost the plot! In his never-ending quest to build bigger palaces, giant walls and enormous statues of himself he has raised the Land Far Far Away tax rate to 101%! Jack and Jill can’t afford to get a pail of water, Little-Bo-Peep has to sell her sheep, and even the Princess is so hungry she ate the pea.
When even the bravest of Knights are too scared to stand up to him, the Land Far Far Away cries out for a hero to put a stop to the madness of the King.
Luckily their cries are heard by a mysterious red hooded figure with a bow and arrow, a basket of goodies and some very unlikely ‘Big Bad’ backup."

It’s the crime of the century that’s too much to bear. Bear-boy-band singing sensation Baby Bear has been kidnapped! When a ransom note is discovered asking for an unlimited supply of ‘Just Right Porridge’ all hands and paws point straight at Goldilocks.
Facing a life sentence of uncomfortable beds, chairs and cold porridge she turns to the only cool-cat capable of cracking the case, the mysterious super-sleuth in boots known to all as the ‘Pet Detective’.
Goldilocks discovers that sometimes when everything seems too hard, all you need is a friendly feline and a whole lot of perseverance to make it all just purrrrrrrrrfect.

SPCA "s" DISCO
CONGRATULATIONS and THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
The Disco was an absolute success last night, and without the help of you, whether you were there in the capacity of supervising, or helping your own family, or helped by organising, supplying, collecting, selling, painting, decorating, counting, or providing new ideas, etc, or simply there to look Fab and create a great vibe, I think we would all like to congratulate the Hard working Community of Salford, the Hard working House captains, and their very hard working teachers and parents and grandparents, for a great evening.
The House Captains who were in charge of the disco, successfully raised $271.30 for the SPCA.

Salford Schools - Murihiku Polyfest 2015 our "korowai" cloak.
Korowai - a treasured heirloom for generations. Also known as “kahu huruhuru”, most people use the word “korowai” as the name to describe Māori feather cloaks. Korowai are the most highly prized of all traditional Māori garments and are regarded as family and personal heirlooms.
This project has been lead by Jan Bartlett from Room 1, involving all students and staff.
What a stunning result. This will be on display in Windsor at "Windsor Health and Hire" in Bourke Street.
Please take the time to go down and have a look.
