Week 2 Term 2

It was a great day on Friday at the mini marathon, all the children who took part had fun and should be proud of themselves.

We have three trips coming up that I require parent helpers and transport for:

Thursday this week - Walking to New World supermarket and back. Leaving school at 11:00am and returning around 1pm. UPDATE: we are now driving to New World, leaving at 12:10pm.

Friday 26th Visiting the Museum (Bus provided so parent helpers only required) 9-11:45am.

Friday 26th Cross country Transport is required for this - leaving school at about 1pm.  Students will go home directly from the Redwoods

Please complete this form to let me know when you are available to help.

St Mary’s would like to invite all parents/whanau to complete the following Health and PE survey.

Please click on the link HEALTH to take you to the form.

Thanks.  Mrs Sheryl Todd
