YEAR 6 Camp 2022 - Monday 28 March to Wednesday 30 March 2022

Dear Parents, Whanau and Caregivers,

Subject: 2022 Year 6 Camp

One of the highlights of being a Year 6 student is going to camp. Next year, the Year 6 students will be going to Camp Columba in Term 1.

The camp will run from Monday 28 March to Wednesday 30 March 2022.
We require a number of parents to attend camp to help supervise and support students as they take part in activities and complete duties around the camp.   The cost for a parent to attend camp is $55.00.  One parent will be required to take a private vehicle, for emergency use, as the rest of the group will travel by bus. Petrol costs will be reimbursed.

Camp is a busy and fun environment. We require parents who enjoy being part of a team, have a positive “can do'' attitude and enjoy being active in the great outdoors. If you think you have the skills required to attend camp with us, which includes managing and communicating clearly with groups of children, then please fill in the form below and return to Ms Henery by Friday  26 November.  Successful parents will be notified via email.

If, in the case where we have too many parent volunteers, we will do a ballot draw after people with medical skills or other vital skills have been selected.
Police vetting will need to be current or completed, for Salford School by all parents wishing to attend camp.  These will be sent out to successful parents if required. This process will need to start before the end of the school year so clearance is gained before next year.  Vetting forms need to be brought into school by the parent applicant, with two different forms of identification provided for sighting. 

All parents/caregivers accompanying school based activities now also need to show proof of being fully vaccinated.   This can be shared at the office and all information will be discreetly handled. 

At this stage camp will cost $200 per child and $55 per adult supporting.   We are working to ensure this is the maximum cost but will of course need to work with the camp fees etc for instructors and bus costs which can change.   Payment is expected before we go on camp next year unless prior arrangements have been made with Mrs Devine in the office.   If you would like to begin an automatic payment to cover the cost of camp please contact Mrs Devine

Further information for students will be coming soon.  Any queries please contact Ms Henery.

Thank you for your continued support.
Nga mihi,
Ms Teresa Henery

Concerns about Social Media

It has come to our attention today that Tik Tok, Facebook and Twitter platforms have been used to stream inappropriate content to viewers.
Graphic content of a suicide nature has been hidden within videos of puppies and kittens to lure children to view.
Our recommendation is to remove Tik Tok from any child's device as content cannot be unseen or retracted.
Parents/Caregivers will need to actively monitor children's use of all social media.

ANAPHYLAXIS AWARENESS AND SAFETY

ear Parents and Whanau
 
ANAPHYLAXIS AWARENESS AND SAFETY
 
You will all be aware of the extreme reactions that bee stings, nuts and other food or plant allergies can bring to children.
 
At Salford School we have staff and students with varying allergies and body responses to these allergens. Some that can be treated easily with antihistamine or creams and others that are more severe requiring epi-pens and immediate medical treatment.
The intensity of exposure and resulting reactions vary just as much as the treatment.
 
We currently have a student who is a level 6 reactor. This is the highest level there is on this scale.
This means that should they come into contact with nuts at all (even if someone else has had a peanut butter sandwich and touched a door handle and then the child touches the door handle some time afterward) their body will react violently and quickly leaving the smallest amount of time for help to be obtained and administered.
 
In order to support this child (and others who also react but not so strongly) in being able to attend school safely,  Salford School will be a nut free school.
 
We please ask that you support this by ensuring children do not bring nuts, nut products or food items containing nuts to school at any time.
Just the residue of nut traces on someone’s hands is enough to cause a rapid, violent reaction.
 
Thank you for helping us keep all of the children at Salford School safe.
 
Sincerely
 
Sarah Gibbs
 
Principal Salford School

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.
