Casebrook and Kamaishi students lives have both been impacted by earthquakes and the subsequent disruptions and so the students enjoyed spending time comparing their cities and life styles and enjoyed learning more about each others culture.   Thank you very much to those who home stayed our visitors, they were made very welcome.  Thank you to Tracy Goulden for her organisation and accompanying the students on many of their outings.

School photos were sent home last week.

The student leadership team are embarking on their first leadership project which is an appeal day for St John Ambulance.

Check out our Christchurch Mail Advertiser if you can track one down.

Each newsletter we will investigate an app that students at Casebrook are being spotted with on their personal phones and devices. 

No smartphone should be without the ʻflash as' free, new, Casebrook Smartphone app!

Congratulations to our students who achieved their badges for earning the required number of REP cards in one of our three expectations of RESPECT, EXCELLENCE and PERSEVERANCE. 

Congratulations to the Hagley Mixed Touch team who had an outstanding season this year.

Casebrook fielded an enthusiastic team and had a very enjoyable softball season for 2016. 

Our Girls Team improved a huge amount over the season and performed exceptionally well in their last game against Heaton.

Tuesday before last, the boys Hagley Cricket team played against Heaton. Casebrook won the toss again with Ben’s lucky $2 coin and elected to bat.

We've had some exciting challenges throughout term one. With only a few weeks until the Gold Badge ceremony, students have been making a final push towards their badge. Challenges range from making baked goods, learning new languages, to completing a maths badge with students showing REP values throughout each challenge. Check out a few of the challenges from the term so far!

We would like to invite you to meet with your child’s teacher for the Term 1, Parent Conference. We believe that this opportunity to meet and discuss your child’s abilities, strengths and needs is an important meeting that all parents must attend.

We have some delicious specials available each day including Sushi on Wednesdays. Sushi orders can be placed any time up until 8.30am the Wednesday of delivery. The Casebrook canteen is open at morning tea and lunchtime, Monday-Friday. Lunch orders are placed at the canteen window either before school or at morning tea time. The canteen has not had any price increases since February 2015, making the current prices great value for money and an easy way to ensure your child has a nutritious lunch.
