Attention all farmers

Did you know that if your farm has supplied ANZCO, AFFCO or Lean Meats with Bobby calves this year, our school can be sponsored 50 cents for every calf sent? This is of no cost to you or your business but is paid directly by the company to our school PTA. ANZCO will backdate all calves sent this season already! Please ask your farm owner/employer/share-milker if they would consider nominating our school.

When you sign up for Bobby calves to be picked up from one of the above, all you need to do is let your local farm rep know that you want to nominate our school.

Mention our name

When shopping at the following places please mention our name for us to earn rewards points.

ANZ Southfuels - contact Sharon Watson 027 730 5818 - Sharon.watson@southfuels.co.nz to nominate our school, or to discuss your fuel needs.

OCEANS Grief and Loss is a peer support programme for children, teens, and adults who have experienced loss in their life. The losses we work with usually come from the death of a significant person, or a personal experience of separation/divorce. The focus of this programme is providing a safe environment for participants to talk about their loss/es and the change/s that have occurred then look ahead to a preferred future living and coping with the loss/change. We meet once a week for eight weeks in the children's programme and six weeks for the teen and adult's programme. We have seen many people go through the programme and have numerous success stories of how it has helped (Over 500 since Oceans started in 2006).

AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMME:

We currently operate an Out of School Programme at Temuka Primary School and have in the past operated a FREE pick up service for the Winchester School community.

The Programme operates from end of school until 6pm on school days and is $17 per child per session. Parents can also access the OSCAR subsidy which may make the session as little as $1.07 per child.

We have recently acquired a van which now allows us to reinstate collection of pupils. Please contact Craig for further details.
