Kia Ora

We’re done! Well, almost. On Friday afternoon we will be closing for a much anticipated term break.  We will reopen for the last term of 2018 and our 4th year of existence.

If you’re connected to any of our communication channels then you’ll note that we are in the middle of recruiting for 2019. We have learnt that our most effective method of getting the word out there is through social media with the assistance of you, the Shotover community. So please share, share and share again the various posts as they pop in your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram feeds etc. We need to find the best possible people to serve our children. You can view all the related details here on our website.

Planning, designing and thinking for 2019 is well underway. You might be wondering what does this have to do with me? This is a good question, the answer is essentially not much. It is my challenge to work through. However there is one thing you can do to help us: enrol. If you have a child or know of a child/ren coming to Shotover anytime in the next 24 months then it would be good if you could pre-enrol. This is a very simple process on our website. In addition to this, if you and your family are moving to new pastures in 2019 it would be really helpful if you could let us know by flicking Lisa in the office a quick email, office@shotover.school.nz.

A huge, massive and large thank you for your support in term three. We have had to call on you many times for various sporting events, trips to other locations, and of course our winter sports programme. None of which would actually take place without your support. Thanks.

See you all on the 15th October,
