this week for stocktake

The Mountains to Sea Trust has worked with Paremata School for many years, including taking the Kauri team snorkelling every second year.

Their trailer, containing over 100 westuits, 50 masks & snorkels, fins, boogie boards and safety gear was stolen on November 29.

The Trust needs to raise $23,000 to replace the missing gear so we are holding a fundraising Christmas dress up day and bake sale.

FIELD & SENIOR FORT NOTICES

SHOES! These are cool size 4 shoes looking for their owner... in the office

Where is Cam's scooter? He rode it to school two Fridays ago and it has disappeared... it has still not shown up! :-(

Dogs- Please remember that dogs are alive animals and not toys. Not all dogs like to be picked up always ASK before picking a dog up. Put your hand down so a dog can sniff you first and be gentle and kind.

Patrols

PATROLS

New trainees, you MUST check your school email regularly! This is how people will ask for someone to fill in for them and how I will let you know about any changes. Please also let me know if any of the days you are able to do change. I do not have a crystal ball! If you don't tell me, I don't know.

I have made some changes to the next weeks to take Aleem off and replace him with others, so please check your roster again.

Thank you - Mrs Bassett

TERM 4 IMPORTANT DATES:

Week 10:

Tuesday- Summer Reading Programme starts

Wednesday- Leavers Dinner

Week 11:

Monday- Summer Reading Programme ends

Tuesday- School finishes

From today until Monday 8th December the library will be CLOSED, including lunchtimes for the stocktake. This means that I will be busy scanning all the books that the library has in it. This helps to keep the catalogue information up to date, as well keeping an accurate number of books (stock) in the library. I also find out books that are missing and what needs to be reordered.

There are still a lot of books that are issued out. These need to back as soon as possible. Some kids will be going to classrooms to collect any returns and the return bin will be out the front of the library as well.

From Tuesday 9th– Monday 15th December the library will be open again for the Summer Reading Programme. I will open the library, for extended hours on the last week of term, so that books can be issued over the Summer holidays.

For more information on the stocktake or SRP visit the Library Page

Thanks Emma
