Time is flying!! We are nearing the end of the year. It is the time of the year when everyone is getting tired. We have seen lots of super tired kids on the mat at the end of the day!!
This is our last K.I.T. notice for the year! Can we just say it has been an absolute pleasure to teach your children this year and we feel very lucky to be their first teachers in their school journey! We are always so impressed and amazed by the progress they make while they are in Kōwhai. For those of you who are staying with us next year we look forward to seeing you back at the beginning of next year ready for another great year in Kōwhai! For those of you leaving us thank you for all of your support throughout your time with us and know that you are always welcome to pop back and say hi anytime. We know all of the learners going on to Ti Kouka will look after Mrs Herring for us!! Prizegiving We have an end of year prizegiving coming up where we will be handing out a few certificates and singing a few songs. It will be held at the West Melton Community Centre for Years 1-4 at 11:00 - 12:00 if you would like to come along and hear our beautiful singing! Literacy We will be spending next week on assessment so there will be no home learning. At the end of the week if you would like some ideas of things to work on over the holidays for your child, come and see us and we can give you some ideas.

Farewell to Mrs Bowen A big thank you to Mrs Bowen who has been teaching in Kōwhai for Term 3 and 4 to be our extra teacher to support our numbers. It has been great to have an extra adult in our class and we love all of the really cool ideas and activities she brings to Kōwhai. We will surely see her around the place next year!! Mrs Dunlop We wish Mrs Dunlop all the best for early in the new year when her and her husband are expecting their first baby. We look forward to having lots of baby cuddles and hope that she will come and visit us lots! Have an amazing and safe Christmas holiday everyone and we hope you get to spend some time together as a family!
