Winning Whanau Mufti Day	The winning whanau for Term 1 is Puriri. All children in Puriri can wear blue mufti on Thursday to school.
Lost Property	There is a huge amount of lost property ( the black box outside the library) please could you have a look through it and see if anything belongs to you
Swimming	Due to the weather becoming much cooler the pool has now been closed for the rest of the term. Many thanks to the wonderful parent helpers who helped us with our water safety lessons throughout the term.
Bake Sale	PTA Bake Sale is Tuesday lunchtime, bring some gold coins for a sweet treat
Tissues	As the cold season is approaching. Please send in a box of tissues for your child to your child’s teacher as soon as possible. Thank you to those families who have already brought theirs in.
Mathletics	Keep up the Mathletics over the holidays. A reminder that the Mathletics fee needs to be paid in full by the end of this term (13th April). The fee is $20.  If this is not paid in full by the end of the term, your child's subscription will be put on hold over the holidays until the fee is paid. Thank you to those of you who have already paid.
Last Ice Blocks on Thursday	If you would like your child to have an ice block on Thursday  please send in $1 to your child’s teacher.
School bags	Please encourage your child to unpack their own bag when they come into class in the morning (water bottle and book bag) - this helps them become more independent & responsible for their belongings It’s also great to see so many children carrying their own bag into class in the morning and at home time - after all it’s their bag!!
