Dress Up as A Book Character Day
The final event for Book Week will be Dress Up as Your favourite Book Character day. This will take place on Thursday the 2nd of November and we will have a parade and photo session in the gym from 9:10am.   Let your creativity flow with your costume. Below are some ideas from last year.  
Finally, you are welcome to come along to both events.

Athletics Day

So much Joy was had last Wednesday (and Monday afternoon) when the Juniors got together to take part in Athletics sports. Thanks to all the supporters, the kids love having you watch them.




STOP DROP READ!

As part of book week we have stop, drop and read. This is when a special song plays and the whole school stops and finds a book to read.

Athletics Day Tomorrow



Just a reminder that tomorrow (Wednesday) is Junior Athletics Day.

Here are some of the details about the day. Your child can come dressed in suitable clothing for athletics in the colour that represents their Awa group if possible. If you are unsure what Awa group your child is in, it is the same colour as their school Sunhat.

Athletics runs from 10.30 till the end of the day and you are welcome to come along and support the children.

 Ice Cream Available Men-Love Berries Real Fruit Ice Cream is going to be available to purchase during Junior Athletics Day. You are welcome to purchase an ice cream throughout the day. Kids will be able to buy an ice cream during the lunch break. The cost is $5 a tub.

We are looking forward to a day of Joy and Growth Mindsets in action.
