WELCOME TO WEEK 5!

Hi All, 

We have a lot of events coming up as we head into the second half of this term! We appreciate that it becomes difficult to keep up with the alerts and notices, so we will do our best to keep you updated on all things! 

GOOD LUCK to our Year 7 and 8 Cantamath Teams who will be competing on WEDNESDAY evening!

SKIING 
Skiing information for our annual school trip came out last week. Please note - the notice is very clear on the parameters of this trip, and there are no variations on these, as it becomes difficult to plan and cover costs. We will have our fingers crossed for a gorgeous, spring skiing day! 

NORTH CANTERBURY KAPA HAKA - 

If your child is in this group, a notice will have come home on Thursday. Please note the ticket sales information, as tickets are booked, and not confirmed until payment is received. We are limited to the first 50 paid orders. 

WHAT'S COMING UP IN HERO? 

We have completed our Literacy assessment this week, and you will see this coming out early next week. Please note if your child was out of the class at the time we did the assessment they will not have it Hero. You should have also seen the Technology Report from Kaiapoi Borough come through. 

SEXUALITY EDUCATION - 
Hopefully you have all seen the HERO post that outlines the Sexuality programme in Matawara. This programme will begin THIS WEEK (22nd August) and will run for at least 3-4 weeks. I will do my best to keep you up to date with how things are going, and our foci for each week, via this blog. 

KAIAPOI HIGH SCHOOL INFORMATION EVENING - 

CHANGE OF DATE and VENUE!  

Each year, Kaiapoi High School comes in to chat to parents (children can also attend) about what to expect next year. This now takes place at Ōhoka School on WEDNESDAY at 7 - 8:30pm. Please use the Hall Gate to enter the school, and the classrooms are straight ahead across the courts, that we will be in. 

This evening is appropriate for parents of both Year 7 and 8 parents and is always a very informative chat. 
Could you please just flick us a quick email - k.morrison@clarkville.school.nz - to let us know if you are thinking of attending, so we can get a gauge on numbers. 

Have a great week!

Kristie, Jenny, Sue and Helen.
