Our learners have had a great start to the year. I have been really impressed with how they have adapted to learning in a new space with a new whānau (family) teacher. Thank you for everything you have done to ensure your children have come back to school refreshed and organised for learning. This weeks Sean's Spot has some important beginning of year information that I encourage you to read.

The Board of Trustees have approved the following 2020 term dates.

We are looking forward to seeing you and your whānau at our LWG picnic!

As part of our Sun Protection policy and our requirements as a Sun Smart School, our learners and staff are required to wear a school sun hat during term 4 whenever they are outside.

Please see the dates below for upcoming school events. These can also be found in our school calendar and on our website.

We use a range of platforms to keep in touch and update whanau around key information and messages. Please read on to ensure you are connected!

At Te Uru Tarata - Lemonwood Grove we believe in developing a strong partnership between home, school, child and learning. At the end of this week we will be sending home a 'Through Your Eyes' sheet for whānau to complete and return to your child's whānau teacher.

As a mark of mourning and respect and in accordance with protocol, the New Zealand Flag is to be flown at half-mast on Friday 14 February 2020 to mark the funeral of the former Prime Minister Rt Hon Michael Kenneth Moore ONZ AO PC.
