February, 2017
Thank you to all those who attended and
participated in our Opening School Mass this morning, and for those who
brought food for morning tea and an item for the Food Back. Your generosity is
much appreciated. At Mass we welcomed a team of 8 young people from the
Evangelisation Team based in Wellington and enjoyed a mime/dance from them. We
look forward to a morning with the team at school this Wednesday and I know
they are looking forward to it too.

Entries for
Swimming Sports Events:
The children in
Room 4 have been letting me know which events they wish to be entered into for
the Swimming Sports. Could you please confirm with your child which events they
intend to compete in, so that our information is accurate and finalised by this
Thursday.
Congratulations:
Congratulations to the Morrell Family for
their participation and results in the recent Shearing and Woolhandling
Competitions in Invercargill. We really enjoyed reading and discussing the
newspaper articles and photos in class. We agree that Jelena should be very
proud of her family!
Technology & Garden Project:
Thank you to Mr Cooney for coming in last
Monday to begin our project to design and build a wooden structure for the
School Garden. The children have had a good introduction to all the different
kinds of wood and why some are better for outdoor use than others. We look
forward to Session 2 this week. Watch this space.
Published Writing:
Thank you to those who have emailed their
Holiday Recounts in to me. Keep up the good work Room 4.
Regards, Markelle Ward J
