Arts Splash and Wearable arts It was great to see our students performing so well at this year’s Art Splash and wearable arts shows. They were great ambassadors for our school and I was very proud of them all. A huge thank you to staff and parents who made participation in these events possible. It is most appreciated and we couldn’t do things like this for our students without you.

Earlier this year the Board decided to move our policies and procedures to SchoolDocs. SchoolDocs works with over 1800 primary, intermediate, secondary, and area/composite schools throughout New Zealand to keep their policies and procedures up-to-date. I am pleased to advise that our SchoolDocs site is now set up on the school website.

Congratulations to our students that competed in the Mastermind Competition run by Paraparaumu Library at the Raumati Bowling Club on Friday. This was the first time we had students taking part in the competition. 

From this week on we will be sending newsletters out every odd week in the term, i.e. 3, 5, 7 etc. A lot of the information in the newsletter is generic and doesn’t change on a weekly basis. For day to day information please continue to use your child’s class Facebook page and the Paraparaumu School Facebook page.

Matariki evening— Thank you to all those families who braved the cold weather last night in support of our Matariki evening. It was a wonderful celebration and the children contributed to making it a special event.

Welcome back to Term 3. This year is whizzing by. We have lots of exciting things planned. We have the junior and senior winter tournaments, junior and senior movie nights put on by the PTA, Maths week and Maori Language week. Keep an eye out for details during the term.
