Welcome back to school. I trust you have all had a restful break and are ready to start Term 4.
We have a busy term ahead of us that's for sure.
Please read through the notices carefully as there are a lot of them!
I understand some of you were having trouble with completing the athletics form. Please try again. If you are still having trouble, just email me with details of how your child is getting to and from the event so we can finalise transport.
What's on this week: Swimming each day for Room 2
Monday - athletics practice
Tuesday - athletics practice
Wednesday - Whaea Lynette, Library, athletics practice, Inter School Chess Tournament
Thursday - Kapahaka, athletics practice
Friday - Sausage Sizzle, Colour Run
ATHLETICS FOR YEARS 4 TO 6. Please include in your blogs:
THE MONTH OF THE ROSARY. This month is the month of the Rosary.
THE COLOUR RUN is happening this Friday. This should be a lot of fun.
It is the final week to get sponsors. Please continue in getting sponsors. If you haven’t made a profile yet, there is still time. We can keep going right to Friday and then the fun will begin. https://schoolfundraising.co.nz/ After the event the children will be able to order their prizes online. Orders need to be done by 31 October.
The organisation of the Day
The Colour Run is finally upon us!!
The students have done an AMAZING job fundraising and it is now in the final week for getting sponsors. The colour run will take place this Friday afternoon the 21st of October starting at 1.30 pm
Students must wear old clothes for the run…they will be covered in coloured chalk by the end of it! (Rest assured it does wash out). Please send a change of clothes and a towel as there will be a water activity. They cannot use their sports uniform or their school uniform when taking part.
We invite you all to come along and watch the fun unfold!
If you would like to be a parent helper on the day please let Brigitte Holmes know.
brigitteh@stmarysrotorua.school.nz or text 0272121206.
The PTA helpers will be about but we will need more hands to help with safety, please volunteer if you can.
GRANDPARENTS/GRANDFRIENDS MASS; Friday, October 28th at 9.30 am
Join us for Mass with Catholic songwriter and singer, Andrew Chinn leading our singing. We would love to see as many Grandparents/Grandriends as possible there with us.
TEACHER ONLY DAY:
WORKING BEE.
SWIMMING
The pool is in perfect condition for swimming. Thanks to Richard for preparing the pool. The water temperature is around 30 degrees, so it is warm. The pool is a great facility and we expect that children will have their swimming togs with them when their class is timetabled for swimming.
SUMMER UNIFORM
Summer Uniform is to be worn from Monday. Please make sure children are not wearing part summer, part winter uniform.
Students are to start Term 4 in full summer uniform. Our Uniform Shop is open Mondays (8.30-9.00am), Wednesdays (2.30-3.00pm) & Fridays (8.30-9.00am) during term time. The girls’ summer dresses are currently only available from our school uniform shop. Please don’t forget children need to wear the school sun hats in term 4.
We also sell school uniforms via our school website. You can order and pay online and pick up your uniform from the school reception after you have been notified by email that the uniform is ready to pick up. Hopefully, this will be easier for those parents who find it difficult to get to our uniform shop.
