A Week of Events

 

There are 3 events we will be focussing on this week.

Road Safety Week starts tomorrow. Please spend some time discussing these two questions:

Cultural Unity Day is on Tuesday. We will be celebrating the many cultures within our class and our school through the day. Please encourage your child to dress in a traditional costume or something that represents their culture eg Kiwi - swandri, black shorts and gumboots, Samoan - lavalava & shirt. 

The whole school will be having a shared lunch at 12.30pm. We will brainstorm some cultural foods we can bring to share e.g. cheese rolls, samosa, sushi, pineapple, panikeke, dumplings, injera, scones, club sandwiches, rewana bread, etc. Please do not send along packets of chips, biscuits or drinks.

Pink Shirt Day is on Friday. Our catch phrase is "Choose Kindness". We are asking the children to wear a pink t-shirt if they have one and bring a gold coin. No pink shirt? Don't worry, anything pink will do.

Last word: Congratulations to Luke and Elska who earned our School Values Certificates last week. Ka nui te pai ō mahi!
