Thank you

Yesterday's hand-held devices information session had a small turn out but it allowed for robust discussion and explanation. The wireless network has been ordered and should be installed in the next two weeks.  This is the first step in getting hand-held devices into the classroom. I would like to thank Kerry for her work in securing us a charity grant to enable us to purchase some hand-held devices for use in the class. We are awaiting the outcome of more grant applications and once we know the final total we have to spend, we will make our purchases.

Speaking of purchases, I trust everyone is ordering their t-shirts from http://www.mirandabrown.co.nz/Free_The_Sea.htm as these are not only great t-shirts but another way to support the school as Miranda has generously donated a portion of each sale to the school.

It is wonderful to have so many people putting their money, time and effort into making this fantastic school even better.  From netball to repairing the steps and everything in between, so many people in the community continue to give so much, and we are very appreciative of everything that is done.

With Lisa leaving at the end of last year, the board are in need of a treasurer and would be keen to have someone with book-keeping or accounting skills. If you are interested or know of someone in the community who might be, please contact the school office.
