Paraparaumu School

Student of the Week

Danica                    Room 8                      Year 6

The student of the week for Mrs C.M.’s class is …..

drumroll please ….. Miss Danica!

I spotted a little something extra special in Danica the very first day that I met her.  Danica has a thirst to learn more and more and more!

She will take a risk and have a go, she uses manners, she is responsible and respectful, she makes the right choices and she has fun!  I can always count on Danica to be listening attentively and be courteous whilst showing good manners in the classroom.

She is a great role model for others as she consistently cooperates with other students and is always kind and helpful to everyone in the classroom.

Danica is a beautiful and kind student who strives to do her best at all times. We are so lucky and I am so honoured to have her in Room 8.

Keep working hard Danica and all your dreams will come true!!!

Interschool Cross Country

On Tuesday, 45 Paraparaumu School kids represented our school at the Interschool Cross Country at Waikanae Park.  All the kids put in an awesome amount of effort and had a great day.  We also had some kids who made the top 10 across all the Kapiti schools.

James – 9th in the Year 3 boys

Jack – 1st in the Year 4 boys

Corin P – 1st in the Year 5 boys

Marcus – 10th in the Year 7 boys.

The kids who came in the top 10 from Year 4 and up will now have the option of going to regionals.

YUMMY APPLE STICKER

Please keep collecting Yummy Stickers and passing onto your child’s teacher.  We can get some amazing sports gear plus the winning class gets a pizza lunch!

PIZZA FRIDAYS – CHANGES

Thank you for your ongoing support for this PTA fundraising activity – it allows us to continue to cover the ever increasing bus costs for class  trips. We need to make a couple of changes:

1. Due to price increases at Dominos, we need to increase our prices to $2.20 a slice for both pepperoni and cheese pizzas.
2. Donna Smith will soon be working Friday mornings and there is no one else on the PTA available at that time. The PTA has decided to move the cut off for orders to 6pm Thursday, so she can process it that evening instead. This will take effect from the start of June.
