Weekly Notices, Term 4, Week 5

 

Welcome to Week 5 Term 4 - November 14, 2021                  

              


 Aloha parents and whānau, welcome to week 5!

I hope you've had a wonderful weekend and managed to find time to relax with your family. We are over halfway through the term and the busyness is well and truly upon us. We had a fantastic day at Athletics on Monday. The kids all did so well and it was awesome to have some parent helpers as well. A huge congratulations to those students who competed in the gymnastics competition, I know you have been practising hard all year. 

Just a friendly reminder that all students need to bring their hats to school, we know how harsh our New Zealand sun is. Also, please continue checking that your child is bringing their device to school fully charged. We will be doing some assessments this week, for which students will require their Chromebooks. 

With Delta cases now in Rotorua, sanitising and staying home if unwell is more important than ever. Please do not send your child to school if they are sick. 

We have some exciting learning ahead this week, including the Making a Difference Swimming Programme (Tuesday - Friday) and a hands-on experience from the Rotorua Museum called The Outreach Taniwha Programme. 

Coming up this week:

Monday - No swimming. 

Tuesday - Swimming
            - Museum programme

Wednesday - Swimming

Thursday - Swimming and Library 

Friday - Swimming 
               - Golden Time. 

Stay safe and have a lovely Sunday evening, 

David Bach and the Kahikatea Team

  Bonjour to all Parents and Caregivers, Firstly we would like to thank all parents and caregivers for the wonderful work they have been doing with homeschooling their children during the level 4 covid-19 lockdown. We hope you have had no problems accessing the learning on the Middle School Kahikatea site. Remember that all the information regarding home learning can be found on the class blog from either this week or last week. If you have any concerns or questions do not hesitate to contact me. We realise that many parents will be working from home and that time to help children with their learning may be limited. The learning posted on the site is intended to be independent work for the children as much as possible. Please encourage your child to do as much work as is feasible given the lockdown realities in your household bubble. You will be well aware now that we will be moving from Alert Level 4 to 3 and this takes effect from midnight on Tuesday 31st August. The school is presen
