Dear Parents / Caregivers
These will be given out to students to take home tomorrow (Room 4 will take
their reports home today as Mrs Cresswell will not be at school tomorrow).
The Settling In Reports are not an academic report. They indicate how
well the children have settled into Intermediate this year. After
reading the Settling In Reports I was pleased to note that the vast majority
of Year 7 students have settled into Intermediate school without any problems.
I have pointed out in an earlier newsletter and at the Parent Meeting in
February that we are taking instances of bullying seriously. Early School Closing - Tuesday 22nd March The teachers will be spending the afternoon – evening on Professional Development. Lunchtime will be ˝ hour and the students will finish school at 2:00 p.m. This will enable the staff to begin their course at 2:30 p.m. Waikato Intermediate Schools' Touch Competition There will be a report in next week’s newsletter. School Photographs A reminder that if students want either class or individual photographs the order envelopes and money must be handed in by 8:50 a.m. on Friday. Stationery Prices Stationery prices will revert back to normal retail prices as of Monday 14 March. Canteen / Lunch Prices As of Monday 14 March the price for milk drinks will increase to 90c each. Wet Lunch Phone Number If the lunchtime is shortened by half an hour because of wet weather, school will finish at 2:40 p.m. If parents want to know whether or not we are finishing early, please phone 886 0804 after 12:15 p.m. Relief Cleaner Vacancy Our school has a vacant position for a relief cleaner. We have six cleaners and from time to time we need a relief cleaner to cover sickness, etc. Work would involve cleaning classrooms from 3:10 p.m. to 5:50 p.m. approximately.
