Year 8 Camp Changes – IMPORTANT

Hi Year 8 parents
Change in plans again, please spread the word.
Despite our best hopes, the weather is not cooperating with us. Instead, we have organised to take the Year 8’s to the YMCA gymnasium for inside fun activities with Beachy and his team today. We will then return back to school at 3pm ready for you to pick them up.
We will not be staying overnight tonight but we will be hopeful for tomorrow for Castlepoint etc. (If not we will have other activities for them to do.)
Children will leave their gear here at school in a locked classroom.
We appreciate all your support with these changes.
Friday looks great for Kayaking!

KAPA HAKA VIRTUAL PERFORMANCES AND FILMING

Kia ora Whānau!
Every year we have performed at the Kapa Haka Festival but this year due to Covid-19 the festival is to be ‘virtual’. Each school is going to be filmed and then just before the end of the year it will be screened online by REAP, Wairarapa.
 
Greytown School Kapa Haka is going to be filmed on Tuesday 17th November at school. If you have any issues with your child being filmed and this being screened please make urgent contact with either Miss Verstraten nverstraten@greytown.school.nz or Ms Mackenzie dmackenzie@greytown.school.nz
 
On December 4th we will be performing to the Fellowship Group (formerly Probus I think) at their Christmas lunch to be held at the Greytown Workingmen’s Club. We will just get ready at school and then walk to the performance and back.
 
Any questions or concerns please feel free to make contact with us.

School Athletics Update

School Athletics day is on this Tuesday.
Sadly looking at the long-range forecast there appears to be a lot of rain on its way this week too. We will make a final decision by 3 pm tomorrow afternoon.
If canceled we will send out further information concerning South Wairarapa Interschool events within the following few days.
