We hope everyone is adjusting to Day Light Savings.

It's hard to believe that it is the final week of term 1.  There certainly has been a lot happen during the term!

A reminder that Gene is away for the rest of this term at a Principal's conference.  If you have any questions, require any information, etc., please contact Ali - symondsa@waitunawest.school.nz

There is a Community & School meeting this Wednesday at 7pm at school.  It would be great to see lots of families represented at this meeting.  The Fat Lamb fundraiser will be discussed.  This is our major fundraiser for our school so it will be great to see lots of families involved in it.  There are also other items on the agenda that will be discussed.

We look forward to hosting our termly 4 year old visit at school on Wednesday in Room 2.

Reminder - Friday will be a full day at school.  Some garden/school tidy up jobs will be done so studemts may wish to bring some mufti clothes to school.
