School Swimming Sports

We will be leaving at 9.00 on Wednesday morning. 
All of you will be entered into at least two events so it's a good idea to bring two towels.

You will need to remember to bring the following items:

Togs

Goggles 

Towels x 2

Drink

Morning tea, snacks (we will be back at school for lunch)

School Hat

School fleecy or jersey

Sunscreen (this will also be available at the pool)

Please ensure you are wearing the correct school PE uniform.

Middle Syndicate Singing

Each week the Middle Syndicate has team singing either with Mr Phillips or Ms Hampson.

We can choose the songs we like to sing and we have a lot of fun. 

Kereru's Student Council Representative-Lydia

Well done to Lydia for being elected our representative on the student council.

Students who wanted to try out for the position presented a short speech to the class, outlining their skills and why they wanted to be on the school council. We then had a secret vote and Lydia was elected.
Well done to all of you who put yourself forward to represent Kereru Class. It's great to see such enthusiastic people willing to work hard to make our fantastic school even better :)

Lydia is prepared for her first Council meeting.

Kereru Stars!

Well done to Hannah and Evie!

Hannah received our class award for her mature and responsible attitude as well as her great listening skills-wow!

Evie received the Charism-'Dare to Care' award for her caring nature and helping out her classmates with their work. 

You are both Kereru Stars!

Keeping Kereru Clean!

A HUGE thank you to those parents who have sent along desk wipes and/or hand sanitiser. 

All donations are very much appreciated!

Dare to Care

This week our 'Dare to Care' certificate goes to Noah for caring about his classroom and school environment. 

Well done Noah!

Swimming Lessons

Yay we are swimming! This week we went swimming at the ASB pool from Monday to Friday. On the first day of swimming we were all excited because we wanted to see what group we were going to be in. When some of us hopped into the lane pool we thought it was cold. Others were in the warmer pool. We learnt new ways and techniques of swimming. It was lots fun and now we are all prepared for swimming sports.

Volleyball Fun

This afternoon we were lucky enough to have Allan Brodie from Volleyball Nelson come in and teach us a few volleyball skills. We went to Salisbury Gym and had a great time trying to spike, serve and block.

Class Essentials!

Thank you very much to Luke's mum for donating hand sanitiser and desk wipes (essential to every classroom!)
We always need a big supply of these items in Kereru Class so we can be as germ free as possible. We would be very grateful for any further donations :)
