Term 4 Welcome Back!

Howick Primary School Junior Weekly Newsletter 16th October - 20th October Room 12
Kia ora everyone! Welcome back to Term 4 in the Junior Team. Please make a note of the important dates and events coming up this week.
Welcome	A very warm welcome to our new families who are starting with us in Term 4.  It is great to have you join our Howick Primary School family.
Botanical Gardens trip	Please return your child’s permission slip as soon as possible to the teacher If you are able to assist us on the trip, please speak your child’s teacher
Ice blocks	Ice blocks on Friday starts this week. Children who would like an ice block at lunchtime need to bring in $1 and give it to their teacher.
3pm hometime	For the safety of the children, we ask that all children in Y0-2 are collected by a parent/family member or sibling from the classroom. Please contact the school office if someone else other than you will be collecting your child, the office will then inform the class teacher
litterless lunches	One way to help us reduce litter at school is for each child to try and have a litterless lunch. Please take items out of their packets at home and put only food in lunchboxes. Reusable containers are great for keeping the food fresh.
PTA meeting	The next PTA meeting is on Wednesday 18th October at 7.30 in the staffroom Come along and find out how you can be involved
Assembly	Don’t forget that it’s whole school assembly at 2.15 on Thursday afternoons every second week, we would love for you to come along and celebrate with us.
Class blogs	Please check your child’s class blog for weekly letters and other info. Take a look at our latest photos of our learning and other school events Click on the link : http://2017hpsrm12.blogspot.co.nz/
