​December is upon us with only a few weeks left of the school year. We are in part-time mode until the end of the year, as we have done thus far, as directed by the Ministry of Education.
​
We will continue with our alternate days for the last 10 days of term with Friday 17th December being the final day of school. Hopefully knowing this you can plan somewhat for these couple of weeks. We are so glad to have the children back as much as we can. Please ensure they are well when they come to school and have had plenty of sleep. I am sure the routines are hard to keep at the moment so we appreciate your efforts with this. The timetable is available for download at the bottom of this page.

Important Reminders:
Friday 3 December this week is learning from home and then we reset for Monday for our last 10 days. Our very few children in the bubble will be able to join their classmates for these last couple of weeks if they would like. We will be contacting these whānau directly about this.

Year 6 Graduation
We have decided that we can do two Year 6 Graduation afternoons on the last week of school. This will be videoed or live streamed so parents can see what is happening from home. We are planning to do this safely and still keeping our Stable Groups.
More details will come early next week when we have the programme set to go. We want to ensure we still have a special time to celebrate and send off our Year 6 students.

Class Report and Year 6 Reports
These documents will also be sent or provided to students in the last week of school.

Class Readers and Library Books
The time has come for all school readers, school journals and school library books to be returned for our annual stocktake and shelving over the break. These are due back to school no later than Friday 10th December please.They need to be returned to your child's classroom teacher. Please look around your home for our readers and library books. Thanks for your helping us out at this time of the year as replacing these items impact on our annual budget.

For now, keep safe and we hope you are able to get out a little bit more from Friday whether that be restaurants or other places. Unless there is any major announcements will communicate with you all again on Monday.
