Kia ora koutou katoa,

It was great to see you when grabbing a bite to eat at our BBQ fundraiser for our new Edible Garden. Mel & Debs wish to thank the many parents (and children) who helped.

ENROLMENT FORMS

If you have a child starting at MNS in 2024, and haven’t completed an enrolment form, please do so as soon as possible; this will help in our planning for next year. This is also really important for our funding predictions.

LURKING COVID

Covid is still in our midst, and as we know, schools can be super spreaders. As such, we need to be mindful of children, staff and parents who may be put in a vulnerable position if exposed to Covid.

Just as we do for other easily spread illnesses, we suggest the following: Please note these align with Ministry of Education Guidelines.

1. Please test your child if they show symptoms linked to Covid. We have tests available if you need them, please email the office.

2. If you test positive for COVID-19, please isolate for at least 5 days, even if you only have mild symptoms, starting at Day 0.

OUR KIDS ONLINE

Parents who attended this evening found it informative and enjoyable. Again, we had parents say, “every parent should see this”.  Please see a recap from one of our parents in the article titled Our Kids Online - Recap.

FINAL ASSEMBLY: DATE CHANGE

Please note, this awesome final Christmas Assembly, will now be held on Friday 15 December at 11am- 12:15pm This is also the final day of school. We would love to see you all.

FINAL DAY OF SCHOOL CLOSING TIME

School closes at 12:30pm on Friday 15 December. Please make arrangements to pick your child up then. A form will be sent home with your child later in the year, for you to confirm what arrangements have been made for your child.
