Kia ora koutou, Te Kura o Ōkahau whānau,
Here are the things that you need to know for the week ahead.
Senior Room Moana Pool Swimming Lessons - (Year 5-7) - Monday 18th - Friday 22nd May
Please ensure that your child/children have their swimming gear (togs, towel, and swimming goggles) every day this week. If you could also pack some extra snacks /kai for after swimming, I'm sure the tamariki would really appreciate it!
We will be travelling in a minivan and a car each day. Unfortunately, the car transport part of the equation has just fallen through. We are fine tomorrow, but now we need a car to transport 3 tamariki to Moana Pool from Tuesday through to Friday.
Our departure and return times from and back to school are as follows:
Tuesday: 11.50 am - 1.45 pm
Wednesday: 11.40 am - 1.45 pm
Thursday: 9.40 am - 11.45 am
Friday: 10.40 am - 12.45 pm
If you can help out for one/or all of these days, please contact Lana in the office.
