Week 4 - CAMP WEEK!!

Camp Week:

Kia ora whānau, 

NEXT WEEK:

School Photos- Monday

If you haven't handed in the form to get the sibling photos, don't panic! The photographers will pick the forms up when they arrive on Monday. If you have lost the notice, just write on a note who the children are and the teams they are in and give it to Kathryn.

Calendar Art 
There will be a new system to order these this year. All of the calendar art will be collected and taken to the printers, They will scan it and put it up for you to see. A site link will be sent out sometime next week.

All orders will be done online and not through the school.

Stepping Stones - Due Thursday 15 November
This is for all year 4 students. There are some that have not completed their Stepping Stones for the year, they know who they are, so ask your child if you are unsure. These are due Thursday 15th November and this is the final cut off date for presenting.
