Early ArrivalsDear Parents and Caregivers,
Children are not expected to be at school before 8:30 am. We have a number of children arriving earlier than this just for the social or play aspects. We would appreciate the support of our parents and caregivers in ensuring that children don’t arrive too early at school. Children who arrive earlier than 8:30 are asked to wait outside the classrooms until the 8:30 bell. Robin Harris Principal Pre loved UniformDear 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. It would be great if we could get some uniform items for her and her brother. If you have anything, please drop it into the office. Thanking you.

WANTED - for "inside days"Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Do you have any: LEGO Puzzles Board Games Wooden blocks your children are no longer using. Donations to school would be greatly appreciated to amuse out students on these wet cold days. UNWELL CHILDRENDear 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. Thank you to the PYE FOUNDATIONStudents from all over the school, creating thank you cards to send to the Pye Foundation for there generous donation of 211 reading books.
Who are the PYE FOUNDATION? The Pye Foundation is supporting New Zealand Schools, teachers and students with free access to Sunshine Classics, a digital literacy program featuring 310 all-time favourite Sunshine titles. The program can be accessed through an app on the iPad and Samsung Android and through a browser on computers, interactive whiteboards and Apple TVs. The texts cover levels 1-30 with captivating fiction from world-renowned authors such as Margaret Mahy and Joy Cowley as well as a great selection of non-fiction and plenty of interactive activities. 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." Newsletter - 12th March 2018

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.
