great to see the children back at school,
well rested after their break. Our roll

Graham who is our new teacher aide in
Rooms 4 and 5.

Thank You
A special thank you to Andrew Lennox

school driveway during the break
(along with a bunch of other jobs!) We
are very fortunate to have your handy
help around the school – thank you for
your time, energy and resources.

Don’t forget about the dress-up your pet competition and bring along a named gumboot for the gumboot throw competition.
HAVE FUN ON WEDNESDAY.
Last year we introduced to Ag Day a ‘Lucky Bottle Dip’. This
was a sell out success so we are going to do it again this year.
All families are asked to provide a wrapped bottle of something
i.e. shampoo, sauce, wine, bubble bath, soft drink, fill a bottle
with lollies, put a voucher of some sort in a bottle, anything really as long as it is in a bottle and wrapped up. Please drop
these in to the office before Ag Day.
Thank you for your support.
We welcome 5 year old Iden Bennett and his parents Les
and Michell to our school community. Iden has joined the
students in Room 4 and we wish him many happy school
days.
Our school can now be rewarded through our network of school
contacts choosing ANZ to buy their new homes and grow their
businesses. So if you are dealing with ANZ please nominate Karapiro School so that we can benefit from this scheme. Thank you.
