Week 3

Kia ora koutou,

Things you need to know: 

Term 3 goals: As you will have noticed, Seesaw has been busy with new posts. These posts are our focuses for the term and marking rubrics we will be using for those areas. If you have any questions about these, please let us know. 

Ski notice: if a ski notice was brought home, some of you were missing a page. Here is the info that might have been missed:

Disco: This year's disco is on Friday, 9 August 6-8pm. The theme this year is Dancing Through the Decades - so pick your decade and find a costume to suit! Entry is $6 per child which includes a goody bag and with DJ Straya (Vikki) we promise great music, games and prizes for the most creative costumes. Clarkville students only at this event please and you will need to have your tea before you come as no outside food is allowed.

Please send your child with a named water bottle as we won't be providing bottles of water for the children again this year, this is to reduce waste.

Tickets will be sold prior to the disco via Kindo https://shop.tgcl.co.nz . Please purchase your child's ticket by midday on Friday, 9 August. There will be limited door sales so buying your ticket on Kindo will guarantee entry. You don't need to bring your Kindo confirmation with you, we will have a list at the door on the night.

If you have any questions about the disco please don't hesitate to get in touch with Krissie on 0274 782 114 or jewellerybykrissie@yahoo.co.nz .

Jump Jam For Star Jam: Friday 16th August

What's happening next week?

Wednesday 7th: Ski notices to be returned and payment made to the office. Please note that there will be no refund for the bus if for any reason you are unable to attend on the day.
