Hi everyone
Today every child was given a bag of delicious apples from John (JR) Van Vliet from JR’s Orchards. The kids are loving them and will bring some home to share. If you would like another bag to take home simply pick up a bag outside the office area today.
A big thank you to John for his extremely kind donation!

Parent Evening tonight
Hi everyone
Tonight we have the “Raising Resilient Children” parent evening that we highly recommend.
This event is FREE to all parents and families, and we encourage you to come along as building our children’s resilience is an important life skill to foster.
It will be held at the Kuranui Auditorium at 7pm tonight with coffee and tea provided beforehand.
Kathryn Berkett is an incredible speaker with practical tools and strategies to share. She has a Masters in Educational Psychology, is a certified Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) practitioner and has worked with an extensive list of organisations both nationally and Internationally. She presents in a very practical and down to earth presenter. Parents from her previous sessions have loved her and have taken away a lot of valuable tips that they have put into action.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Staff retirement
Hi everyone
It is with sad news for us and happy news for her, that Carol Fergusson our Office Manager has decided that she is going to retire and will be finishing at the beginning of next term. Carol is an incredible asset to our school office and staff team and will be missed.
Carol is going to enjoy spending more time being able to relax, enjoy her hobbies eg: cooking, gardening, travelling and most of all be a grandmother and wife.
As a result, we will be advertising her position in the Wairarapa Times Age as Office Manager with Finance and HR responsibilities.
If you know anyone who has these essential finance, HR and administration skills then you could bring this position to their attention.
Thanks
