3. School Notices - Week 2, Term 2 2023

 QUOTE FOR THE WEEK


Birthday Greetings to:
Samuel G, Te Paia T and Tendayi R.

Chewing Gum
It has been noticed there are a number of children who are chewing gum at school.  Please remind your children that chewing gum is not permitted on the school grounds.

Mufti Day
Next Friday, we will be having a mufti day to raise funds for the St Vincent de Paul pantry who help families in need.  Instead of a gold coin donation, we are asking each family to donate 1-2 cans of non-perishable or dried food items which can be dropped off in the box outside the office from Monday onwards.

North Otago Music Festival
The North Otago Music Festival is on Tuesday June 13th at the Opera House.
All students in Ruma Hoiho and Ruma Kiwi along with the Dominican Choir students are performing.
Tickets will be available in early June from the school office.  Save the Date!
The link for Massed choir items will be found in your class email for your student to practice at home.
Any questions please let me know,
Leanne Brookes
Dominican Choir Leader.

School Visit
Years 5-8 students enjoyed a trip visiting the Aquavan on Tuesday, an initiative from Otago University. The Aquavan brings live marine critters and touch pools to schools and communities, to create awareness and understanding of the connectivity between river health and the coastal environment.
Specially designed to transport marine species, the van is equipped with chilled re-circulating seawater tanks and a mobile touch tank to support hands-on learning.

We are holding an open day and evening on Thursday 11th May to accommodate busy schedules. Day viewing is from 1:30 - 3:00 pm and the Evening viewing is from 6:00 – 7:45 pm.
