NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

NEWSLETTER 2 2014. 12 February 2014 Dear Parents and Caregivers, It was a great pity that we had to cancel our 2014 School picnic. We may try again at the end of the year. We have more students to welcome: Bonnie- Rose Ata is a new student in Room 2. Aaron Cooper is a new student in Room 6 and Rico Franks in Room 3. We welcome all these students and their families into our school community. Our long time librarian Michelle Brown has resigned her position. We thank Michelle for her dedication and service to our school as the librarian, and wish her all the very best for the future. Sara McAulay has been appointed as the new librarian. We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis

We thank her for accepting this position. Our first major learning topic for this year is a Health Programme called Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). This is a very important area of the curriculum. It teaches our students about being aware of abuse, and what to do about it if they know of someone being abused, or are a victim of abuse themselves. We especially need our parents and caregivers to help our children understand the programme. The NZ Police Education Officer, Senior Sergeant Ian Anderson, will be assisting the teachers with presenting the programme. We have needed to change the date of our Parent Meeting for KOS, so that Ian could be with us. There will be a Parent Information Meeting on Friday 21st February at 2.45pm for you to meet our Education Officer, view the short movies that the students will see about keeping safe, and to get a good overview of the programme. The school’s policy on dealing with disclosures will also be discussed. There will be time for questions as well.
Swimming is going well for most students. Please encourage your child to bring their gear every day. We are so lucky to have a pool and daily lessons. We start our Swimming for Life lessons with Kirsty Hamlin on Thursday. Warm Regards, Rosemarie Ellis
