Kia ora koutou, Kōwhai whanau!
Wow - it's Thursday and the end of the week already! This K.I.T. notice has snuck up on us, so we apologise for not quite being ready in time. We hope you all have a safe and happy Easter - remember that school is closed on Tuesday, and drive safely if you're travelling anywhere. Library A friendly reminder that our library day is Wednesday. Please send library books back to school in your child's reading packet on the day. Walk-a-thon All children need to bring their sponsorship money back by Friday 6 April. The FoWMS are fundraising for safety matting under a new playground to be built just outside our Kōwhai learning community. Thanks for your support of this fund-raiser! Toys at school A wee reminder that we do not encourage the bringing of toys to school. This week we've noticed quite a few LOL dolls, the odd matchbox car, and even a (working) camera. We can not guarantee the security of toys at school, not ensure that they are cared for appropriately. We appreciate your support from home in ensuring that all toys are left at home. Lost property We have some grey 'Artengo' shoes, with velcro and laces and a lime green sole. They are size 13.5 US, and we are guessing that they belong to somebody who spends a lot of time in the sandpit! We've left them in the doorway of our Learning Community in case you want to 'inspect' them over the weekend! We've also got a pair of blue slip-on shoes, also looking suspiciously like they've been in the sandpit. They're also in the doorway of our Learning Community! Reports Reports will be sent home at the end of the term. These reports are for children who have been at school for 6 months or 1 year. We have two types of reports - a progress report (at 6 months, 18 months and 30 months) which reports the progress your child is making in reading, writing, and maths; and an end of year report (at 1 year, 2 years and 3 years) which reports the progress your child has made against National Standards (in reading, writing, and maths), as well as a comment about their work in other school areas - health and PE, the arts, and inquiry. If you have any questions about reports, or are unsure if your child will be receiving a report, please feel free to check with your child's pod teacher. The children are all super tired, and we hope you have a relaxing and restful break over Easter. Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday morning - we're all looking forward to an extra hour in bed! Kia pai tō mutunga wiki, Thelma, Sonja, Jo & Christina kowhai@westmelton,school.nz
