Term 2 Week 5 May 15, 2020

Our last day of distance learning!

Welcome back to school on Monday.

Thank you to you, everyone, for engaging in your learning at home. Whether you followed the Distance Learning Programme or did your own thing, we thank you for staying home and helping New Zealand get to Level 2 so quickly. To the parents and caregiver who supported our learners, to the families that learned important lessons of being together every day, to the children who were on their own and learned to keep yourself busy with no one to play with and those who were worried about other members of the family they could see...thank you all. Your sacrifice was huge and very much valued.

Getting ready:

• School uniform (if you are waiting for new shoes - you may wear others until you are able to get them)
• School jacket (it is cooler these days)
• School hat
• PE gear (every day just in case)
• Drink Bottle (named)
• Morning Tea 
• Lunch
• Stationery (pens - red, blue, green; rubber; pencil; ruler; colouring pencils)
• Can or jar (with your name to keep the items together on your small desk space)
• Device (fully charged or bring your charger - name on both!)
• Novel (chapter book) to read during SSR
• Energy for learning
• A smile

Enjoy your day - keep up the great work and get set for school on Monday. I really look forward to seeing you all again. Have a wonderful weekend - stay safe and well.
