Good morning everyone,

The weather forecast for Hamilton is looking very debatable for the time window that we would be visiting. So, the Hamilton zoo trip has been postponed to next week Thursday 11th June.  Rather than taking a chance today, the weather forecast for next week is looking much better.

It wasn't an easy decision but we also hope that we are much more likely to see the animals in good weather.

Ngaa manaakitanga,

Ms V & Miss Glenn

Kia ora koutou,

Although the rain is great to fill up our water tanks again, it will not be good for our Hamilton Zoo visit tomorrow.

If the forecast is lots of rain for the day, we will have to postpone our trip. We will make that call in the morning and will keep you posted. 

In any case, please send your child to school with their lunch and water bottle, comfortable shoes, and their uniform (including their jersey) as per usual.

Please don't forget to pack a raincoat if you have one.

Ngaa mihi,

Ms V & Miss Glenn

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Our class is about to embark on The Challenge — a 10-day times tables adventure where your child will climb a virtual mountain, one times table at a time.

Every great climber needs a Sherpa. We'd love you to be theirs.

As a parent Sherpa, you'll be able to follow your child's progress up the mountain and send encouragement along the way. It takes just a minute to sign up.

Your child will bring home a personal access code. To join them on the climb:

1. Visit smarttables.app/parents
2. Enter your child's access code
3. Sign up — and you're on the mountain!

The Challenge begins soon. We hope to see you at base camp.

Dear Parents/Caregivers

Three Way Conferences are now available to book on SkoolLopp for your child's/children's interviews. If you have any trouble making a booking, please contact Ulrika and I will arrange it for you.

Please find attached an important notice regarding home reading for Koowhai class.

Ngaa mihi nui,

Ms V and Miss Glenn
