Buses
All schools received a message from Pearsons Bus Company regarding damage to the insides of the bus caused by children riding on the buses. (A new bus had seats intentionally damaged by children pulling things off the seats). Please remind your children to respect the bus and other people on the bus). All families had signed a contract with the bus company at the beginning of the school year.

Rippa Rugby Tournament
Good luck to our students who are competing in the North Otago Rippa Rugby tournament on Tuesday. We have 3 teams entered in the competition, one each in the Yr 3/4, Yr 5/6 and Yr 7/8 grades. Thank you very much to our parents who have offered to coach a team or are providing transport. We do require another parent to help with transport as we have had a cancellation. Please contact Mrs Frances- Rees if you can help. Remember to pack long trousers and your jacket as it can be cold at times as well as a sunhat.

Subway Lunches
Subway is currently having trouble sourcing some of its ingredients for our school lunches and if a bun does not have a particular ingredient, it is because there is none available at the shop. At the moment, carrot is unavailable for any lunches. Remember you can buy chocolate milk for an extra $2.00 with your order.
Swimming Champions
Last Friday at assembly we acknowledged our school swimming champions from our sports day. This year, there were fewer entries in the competitive races and therefore some placing certificates were not applicable. Next year we would like to see more children enter the competitive races because this year, there were a lot of swimmers who swam in the non-competitive races but could have swam the competitive races confidently. Something to think about.
Congratulations to these children who were awarded trophies and certificates:
- 8 yr boys - no -one
