He mihi mahana kia koutou katoa - Warm greetings to all.

We have had a great start to the year with tamariki quickly settling into classes. No surprises that they ran in the gate on Friday!

On Tuesday Sam Bates our dance, drama teacher started working with the collaborations and the she was impressed with the enthusiasm of our tamariki.

The start of the year always has a lot of information. I regularly put into this newsletter specific Health and Safety messages. I've included some this week.

Thanks for persevering with us with our new APP and notification system. Kellie Englefield has done a great job and if you need her to set you up, email her on k.englefield@somerfield.school.nz

Please keep an eye on the calendar, it is updated regularly and gives you all the dates you need.

See you at 5pm tomorrow, Friday 12 February, at our Whānau Evening
