Aladdin Costumes

Hi everyone

I have organised part of Room 7's costume for Aladdin off Ali Express and hope that's OK with you all. I have bought each child a pair of harem pants at $6.50.
To go with this they need a plain white, black or red T-shirt. (if it had a pattern or writing on it, it could be worn inside out).  Please send the $6.50 to either Chrissy or myself. If this is a problem or a hardship for you, please let me know. The children will just have bare feet.
Thanks
Sue

Children are all welcome to bring a dad, granddad, uncle or friend to the shared lunch and races.

The cost for the lunch will be $6 for a child and adult. If your child will not have someone attending with them the cost will be $3. Could we please have money ASAP in a named envelope to Mrs Wright or Mrs Flannery.

Children will be bringing an invite home today.

Thanks

Hi everyone

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and made the most of the beautiful weather.

We have gymnastics this week on Wednesday so please make sure children wear their sport's uniforms.

Thank you to those families who keep supplying us with boxes, bottles, containers and lids for our construction table at Action Stations.

Also we may need some parents or grandparents to help with sewing simple harem pants for our class for the school production. Please email me at: suewright@stgerards.school.nz  if you are able to help.

Kate will be teaching the class this Thursday as well as Friday, as Sue is in Dunedin.

Have a great week,

Sue and Kate

Week 5, Term 3

Hi everyone,

What a beautiful weekend!  This week is a bit less busy, thank goodness!

The children really enjoyed soccer skills coaching with Tessa last week.

Gymnastics on Wednesday, so please remember sports' uniforms.

We are starting to practise songs for Aladdin Trouble, our musical. 

Keep sending along those containers and lids for our construction table.

And that's about it.  Have a great week,

Sue and Kate

Soccer Coaching

Week 4, Term 3

Hi everyone

Hope you all had a great weekend and made the most of the beautiful weather!

Remember school will be closed on Wednesday as the teachers are striking.

This Thursday we have soccer coaching so could children please wear sports' uniforms.

Also on Thursday we are visiting Father Vaughan in the church and he is talking to us about baptism. If you have any photos of your child's baptism or a baptism certificate or a christening gown, could you please send these to school this week to share. (They will be well-looked after).

A big thank you to those families who have sent along construction materials to school.  Please keep these coming, and keep saving lids of any kind.

Have a good week,

Sue and Kate

Week 3, Term 3, 2018

Hi everyone

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and made the most of the beautiful weather yesterday.

Thank you to all those parents that came along to support their child at the crosscountry on Monday.  We were very proud of the children; they all showed resilience and gave it their best!

Well done to George and Freddie for being part of the Alex Under 8 Stormers who won the Miller's Flat Tournament  this weekend. Great rugby, boys!

This Wednesday is gymnastics again so please remember sport's uniforms.

We are getting short of materials for construction. Please keep sending along boxes and containers.  Also please save any type of lid or top eg milk bottle tops, wine lids, shampoo lids etc as the children use these in their very intricate creations. 

If anyone has spare screwdrivers at home, these would be very useful for an electronics station.

The PTA have asked for you to go to this link to complete a survey about the recent cash calendar survey.

Have a great week,
