WAIHi EAST PRIMARY SCHOOL NEWS Kia ora, welcome to summer. The nip is still in the air however our pool is fully operational. It is just a wee bit chilly when you get out. We have had limited success with people wanting to help us close the pool in the evenings and weekend open/close. If we cannot find whanau to do this, pool opening will be limited to when Ross is on site. Please consider if you could help in this area. Our pool is an amazing resource and we want it open for you! Tomorrow night is our annual Christmas party at school. Come along from 5pm for a beautiful kai and music. Our students are performing at 5.15pm with other music following. Next week is prize giving, another celebration we would like you to attend. Come on down and join in the fun. As the weather heats up, and year six students are getting ready to turn back into small fry at College, making good choices at school has become a focus for staff at school. This week we are reminding children to not get involved in other peoples issues, especially the ’policing’ of other students. We have found that this usually turns to custard with a minor problem that can be solved together turns into an epic afternoon of interviewing children. A large number of staff are on duty and I am very available in the office if children need assistance. Please chat to your children about our Golden Rules. They are in place for the safety and happiness of all people who pass through our school gates. Check out the Caught Behaving Intelligently Awards photos below featuring students who have been spotted doing kind or helpful things for others around East School, these were given out at Monday morning assembly. School reports go home with year four to six children this week, and some anniversary juniors. Look out for a child led conference slip, a time when you can come to school and your child will chat about their learning. We would appreciate sending your newsletter home via email instead of in bags with children, particularly when soggy tog bags make your newsletter unreadable. Please drop us a text or phone Sharon if you are keen. Our aim is to keep you informed of all school happenings so you can take part in school events as your busy lifestyle allows. This year due to school busyness we will not have a float in the local Christmas parade. Head into town and enjoy the event from the sideline. We will be back in force next year with a group of parents helping us to make it happen. Nga mihi nui, Emily ([email protected])
