Principal’s News
Friday Cricket
The teams and game times are up on the school website. The first round is today at 4pm. If your child is not able to make a game for any reason, can you please let the school know as soon as possible so we can contact others to fill in the gap. Year 7/8 Camp Information is available on the school website about the trip to Auckland. Keep an eye on this page for updates. Rm 6-7 Classroom Alterations We are getting some major work done to Rooms 6 and 7 in Term 2. This will mean that throughout Term 2 both classrooms will be out of action. Students will be in the library and the hall for class during this time. We are aware that this is quite a disruption, and the school is doing what we can to lessen the impact to students. Basketball Registrations are open for the basketball season. The Year 5/6 and 7/8 teams first game is on Tuesday 13th March, with the Mini-ball teams (Year 1-4) starting on Monday 30th April (first day of Term 2). Please get registrations in by Monday 26th February. We still have singlets outstanding from the touch season. We need these back urgently to ensure we have enough uniform for the basketball teams. Can families please have a check at home for school sports uniforms. Netball Registrations are open for netball. Please get registrations in by Monday 26th February, as we would like to get teams sorted asap and start trainings this term. The season starts on Wednesday 2nd May. Netball Taranaki fees have gone up this year. We cannot confirm the cost of subs yet, but will let you know asap. School Accounts Statements have been sent home with the eldest student. Any issues please give the office a call. Nga mihi nui kia koutou, Jarad Chittenden,Principal
