Week 7 - What's On

We have a relatively 'normal' week this week, which is nice, but there are still a few additional things going on. A couple of notes to start:

• HOTDOGS - A paper order form is coming home today with the children, as the PTA will be serving up hotdogs for lunch this Friday. This is a pre-order situation, so please complete the order form and return it by Wednesday with cash.
• AG DAY- Paper copies of the Ag Day notice came home last week, along with paper entry forms with children who said they were raising a calf, lamb or goat. For more information on how your child can get involved check out our website HERE or pop into the office for a copy.
• KAPA HAKA - a HUGE WELL DONE to the students who performed at the Cambridge Kapa Haka Festival on Friday - you made us all extremely proud! We thank Tainia, Liz and Sarah for all the hard work they have put into teaching our kapa; from creating a brand new waiata, devising actions to go with it, learning how to play the guitar in a particular way, teaching ngaa tamariki how to sing, act, stand, behave... the list goes on and the hours have been many!
• Rural Schools' Cross Country is next week, on Thursday 10th September. ALL students are attending this event so please complete the permission form by Thursday 3rd.

Our PTA and staff have been working away in the background to bring the next epic fundraising event to life!

Introducing Dinner By Numbers - a dinner with a twist!

If you’re up for an evening of food and hilarity, book your tickets using the QR code on the poster! We have a shareable post on our Facebook page for you to spread the word to your friends, family and work colleagues. Let's get sharing and bring in the funds from outside of our parent community!  Numbers are capped, so book in quickly!

Art Auction

In their classes, the students are working on producing individual art pieces. Each piece will be on display in the Roto-o-Rangi Memorial Hall for the entire day and evening on Friday 18th September. Anyone can visit the hall during the day, and those who attend Dinner By Numbers can check out the artwork in the evening. Each piece will have a Silent Auction paper for bids to be placed, in the hope of achieving the winning bid to purchase the students' coveted artwork!

Dear parents,

I thought the Rural Cross Country was on Friday the 11th September, but it is actually Thursday 10th September. Please note it is the day earlier than has been advertised on our calendar and notices.

​Kia ora e te whaanau, 

We're into week 5 of our term, so here's what's coming up...

• Milo Mondays continue through to the end of this term, thanks to our PTA!
• On Wednesday Hot Food continues, along with Launchpad and Kapa Haka.
• Thursday afternoon our newsletter will be coming home. Our last one is attached in case you missed it.
• Friday is our annual Cross Country event over at the Wallis Farm. Click the link for more information, if you missed the notice.

Coming up next week, we have a teacher only day on Monday 24th, so please don't come to school as we will all be in Hamilton attending First Aid training. On Friday 28th our Kapa Haka will attend the Cambridge Schools Kapa Haka Festival, which you are welcome to go along to watch. We will provide more details soon. 

Kia pai too wiki koutou maa. 

The Country Bus has a flat battery. Another is on the way but it means the bus will be at least 10 mins late. Apolgies for the inconvenience.
