On Wednesday morning, as a school we helped Fowler Landscaping with their quest to plant 950 native trees in our community. Did we plant Tōtara Trees too? Yes, indeed we did!

All of our children have the opportunity to eat a snack at approximately 10 am each morning as we know that the gap between eating breakfast and eating after Morning Tea Play can be long for many children. Food eaten at 10am must be a healthy option, such as a small sandwich, vegetables, fruit or yoghurt. Packaged items such as museli bars, fruit strips/jellies, or sweet treats such as cookies, muffins or cakes need to stay in the lunchbox until later in the day. (End of message)
