Kia Ora Whanau!
The Tamariki have hit their mid term slump - they are tired!
We still have 5 weeks to go and to make this an awesome 4.5 weeks together we need rested Tamariki that are ready to roll each day. It would be awesome if over the weekend the team catch up on some much needed rest and relaxation.
Interviews/Catch Ups
As always if you would like to chat with us in regards to your child’s social, emotional or academic progress we are absolutely happy to do that. A reminder that we are your first port of call. Our emails are…
nadia.caldwell@arrowtown.
sarah.joblin@arrowtown.school.
There are only 5 weeks left so please do reach out as soon as possible.
Cross Country and Christmas in the Playground
Our Senior Leadership team are working through the how these events will look and what is able to go ahead under Level 2 restrictions. If we are stiil in Level 2 we will be unable to have Whanau at these events. We know that is disappointing news not only for the Tamariki but the Whanau and Kaiako as well.
As a Junior Team we hope to go ahead with both events despite it being just us and the Tamariki we will let you know what is happening as we know more.
Note: Please read our Newsletters each week as this is where alot of information is shared.
Sunhats
A reminder that the Tamariki need a named sunhat each day. They are unable to be outside in the sun without one.
HERO - Reporting
Please keep checking our updates on HERO. This is where you can see your child’s current goals and their progress for the year. We are always happy to meet with you and answer any questions you might have, but we ask that you make time to do this.
Level 2 Key Messages
Thank you for helping us keep the number of people on site down and manage the Level 2 restrictions that we are having to follow. These are in place for the health and wellbeing of your child(ren) and wider community.
If you do need to come on site please wear a face covering, scan the QR code, then go to the office and discuss your reason for coming in.
Drop Off and Pick Up
If you need to bring your child(ren) to school please “drop off and pick up” at one of the school entrances or a short walk away from school.
If you need to use the Centennial Ave entrance be ready to drop off your child, before you leave home. This is so when you pull up at the drop off area, parents should please remain in your car.
If you need to pick up your child, please wait at one of the school entrances or on the paved area outside the Hall. Make sure your child knows where you will meet them.
Unwell Children
If your child is unwell, they must stay away from school. If they are unwell at school, you will be required to come and collect them. The symptoms we are responding to include;
a fever of at least 38°C
a new or worsening cough
sore throat
sneezing and runny nose
diarrhoea
Headache
Vomiting
The public health recommendations are if you have cold, flu or COVID-19 symptoms, call:
