Camp Reminders

Whakamaru Camp is next week! You will need to be at school on Tuesday by 8:30am unless you are coming on the bus as normal. We will load the bus and leave school by 9am. Please be punctual as our camp programme is very full and needs to run according to scheduled times. We will return to school on Friday by 3:00pm.

Please have shared baking, crackers and fruit ready to be packed into storage on the bus separate to general luggage. This will help speed up our organisation.

Remember to pack your day pack/school bag with items needed during the journey as the luggage compartment will not be opened until we reach Lake Whakamaru. If your child gets travel sick then you may want to take a travel sickness pill the night before and a plastic bag – just in case.

Parents Coming on Camp
As you are camp supervisors feel free to growl any young mischief makers during the camp. We will only accept the most stunning manners, care and respect for each other and property as well as great decision making. If you are faced with a problem then Mrs Murphy or MR T are only a few steps away.
We will talk about camp duties, safety and sleeping arrangements when we are at camp. It’s going to be great fun, so enjoy yourself!

A gear list is on the back of this sheet. Make sure you look at this carefully. It’s a long drive home if you forget your togs!

See you next week.

Let's celebrate spelling!

Congratulations to today's sensational spellers who moved up a spelling group: Caitlin, Braden, Zen, Sian, David and Tyla. Also Mikayla, Jazz and Isla who got 100% but they are already in the You Can Spell spelling group.
I wonder how we will get on tomorrow?!
