As part of the Chill Out and Read Programme, children are being asked to come to school tomorrow dressed up as their favourite book character.
Just a reminder there will be a working bee at school on Sunday, from 9.30am, for a few hours to move sand into the new sandpit.
Please remember we are visiting the Tararua Library, park and pool in Dannevirke tomorrow. The bus will be leaving at 9.00am sharp. Please have your children at school on time. We will be at the park at 10.45am and the pool at 12.30pm if families wish to join us. They will need to bring togs and a towel, morning tea and a drink. Lunch will be provided. It is forecasted to be a bit cooler tomorrow so please ensure school jackets and school uniform are worn.
Parents, please support our local businesses
