Our Kapa haka ropu performed to a high standard at the Festival on Wednesday night. You can see the video on the link above.

2021

We are working on staffing and home bases for 2021 and it would be helpful to know if there are any changes that we don’t already know about. If you don’t think your child will be at St Francis next year - please let us know at the office.

Chromebook Purchasing

Please read the article in the newsletter about purchasing a chromebook. There is still two more weeks to order if you want to receive the Chromebook this year - orders after Show weekend will arrive at the beginning of the 2021 school year.

For those of you who have questions about the 1:1 programme we will be running an information session - date to be advised.

Something to think about...

I have received a complaint from one of our neighbours about the parking in Norah St at the end of the school day. Driveways are being blocked by some people waiting for their children and sometimes the road is blocked as well. This is really inconvenient for our neighbours as is the noise being made when people arrive and leave tooting horns. 

It is really important to keep our neighbours onside - they play an important role in keeping an eye on our school over the weekends and holidays. Please consider others when you are picking your children up from school. Some of our neighbours work from home - and we need to be a little more aware of this in our actions.
