Welcome – Nau mai haere mai

Term 3  Week 2 

Wednesday 26th July 2023

This week we welcome Axel to the Junior room.

Room 6 Meadow Flowers Poems

PTA Hosted  – Coffee & Chat

Please come along on this Friday at 9am (straight after drop off) and join us for a coffee and a chat (hopefully cake too!). This is for all parents but especially for those new or new-ish to our school as a chance to meet other parents and to ask questions or find out what goes on at our place. This will be very informal with Junior Team leader, Kathryn Duncan sharing what happens in our junior classroom when your child starts school.

Please RSVP to Karen ph 764 8643 or email office@ngaere.school.nz  if you think you might come along.

Puanga: A reminder…

Come along and share soup with the children on Thursday 27th July from 12.30pm – 1pm.

Each class will be making soup which will be shared with whanau. 

Thank you to all who have donated towards the soup making. Much appreciated!

Please RSVP to your child’s teacher (if you haven’t already done so).

Children will need to bring a mug for their  soup.

Debating: Next Thursday 03rd August, we have three teams competing in the Rural Cluster Debating competition at Stratford High School. The moot is “Parents have no right to look at their kid’s phones” and we have two teams on the affirmative with one arguing the negative. Good luck to our teams; Celia, Helena & London; Kelsey, Poppy & Olivia; Kaylee, Lacey & Scarlett. For some of these girls it will be their first time debating.
