Health and Safety Policy Review

Kia ora koutou. I hope this message finds everyone well.

It is that time where we are reviewing our Health and Safety Policies and Procedures.  Under Board on our website you will see the Draft Review of Health and Safety, and above that you will see the Health and Safety Policy prior to the initial review undertaken by myself and Board representative Nathan Bartlett.

We  as a school and Board invite our community to take the time to read the draft review and make comment as appropriate to further improve this Policy. There is also an attached Policy Self Review Report for you to document ideas. Please return this to me prior to May 2017 if you believe we need to make changes.

Thank you for your time.

Maths Information Afternoon

On Wednesday 15 March, week 7 of term as usual, we are having our special community invite into our school. The focus of this invite will be for both children and teachers to share what they do in a typical maths lesson. This will be a great opportunity to learn more about your child's math programme, the activities they participate in and how you can help at home too. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at our Maths Information Afternoon.

Tip For Parents

Give your child every opportunity to read to you daily. Ten minutes of reading five times a week = 50 minutes of reading time a week.

If you did this for a minimum of 35 weeks a year we have your child engaging in text for 29 hours extra every year! That 29 hours helps your child read better because they do more miles, are exposed to many words, and importantly are exposed to many ideas through the text.

It is a win - win for all concerned!
