Principal Update: Week 3 - Term 1 2023

Kia ora koutou Enner Glynn whanau,


In this week's blog we share some upcoming events.


Swimming Sports - Manaaki Team (Year 5 - 6)

  • Over the next few weeks our year 5 - 6 students are going to the Nayland Pool to practice for the Swimming Sports.

  • The actual day for the Swimming sports is Tuesday 28th February. The students will go to the Nayland Swimming Pool in the morning and will return by 1.30pm at the latest.

  • If you are attending the Swimming Sports, you are welcome to take your child home from Nayland Pool. Please let your child’s teacher know before you leave.


Teachers Paid Union Meeting

A reminder that we have been advised that the Paid Union Meetings will be held on Tuesday 28th of February. We have been given one meeting date for the Nelson area.

This means that at 1pm on Tuesday the 28th of February we will ask families who can, to pick up their children. We will have a small number of staff on site to support those students who cannot leave early on this day. Please advise the school office if your child will be staying at school so we can plan our activities for this afternoon.

We will send another reminder for this, closer to the time.
