This week we welcome Finn and Charlie to Kōwhai, we are so pleased to have you with us!
Student-Led Conferences A big thank you to all of the families that attended our Student-Led Conferences. It was really great to meet with you all and for the students to share their work with you and to set new goals for the next ten weeks. We really value this time to meet so that we can all work together as a team. Inquiry This year we are focusing on 'Being the Best We Can Be'. For this term we are focusing on 'Being Safe' (Check out our safety videos on Seesaw), if you have any expertise or contacts on ways we can share this with our children please let your child's pod teacher know. (We are currently looking at going to the Fire Station later in the term.) School Disco On Friday the 14 June there will be a school disco. This is run by the Friends of West Melton and is a popular school event. It runs from 5 until 6:15. It is $5 entry (which includes water and a packet of chips) and there are usually glow stick products available to purchase. Tickets are available to purchase in the Wharenui on Wednesday and Thursday mornings or Thursday afternoon. You can also purchase tickets on the night! Resources We would love any empty cardboard boxes that you would normally just drop in your recycling please! These are great for our construction table. We would also love any natural resources that you may collect over the weekend (leaves, acorns, shells). Nails We are in desperate need of flat head nails for our woodwork table! If you have any laying around or you would like to donate some we would be very grateful!! The kids are making some amazing things with the woodwork. Parent Help A big thanks to Cam and Olivia who are currently coming in to parent help in Kōwhat, we really appreciate the time that you give up to help our kids. If you would like to come in and help (this can be by helping with play, baking, reading, making playdough, playing an instrument, or sharing an interest with the children) we would love to hear from you. Independence We are noticing a huge difference in the mornings in Kōwhai with children being super independent and coming in by themselves and setting themselves up for the day! Keep up the good work everyone! A short and sweet K.I.T. notice this week. Enjoy the weekend and Go the Black Caps!! Jeanette, Julia, Sonja, Thelma and Jo [email protected]
