MANGERE EAST PRIMARY SCHOOL WEEKLY NEWSLETTER – MONDAY 8th April 2019 A message from our Tumuaki/Principal – Mrs Stephanie Anich

Kia ora tātou te whānau

Where did the term go! Time certainly flies when you are having fun! Thanks to everyone, our children, staff, whānau, community and Board of Trustees, for your many positive contributions during the term. I look forward to working with you all again next term, and wish you all a relaxing and safe break.

Garden To Table Programme The Three Now TV Show, ‘The Block NZ’ are here on Wednesday 10th - making 4 raised beds for us for our Garden to Table programme. Some children will have brought an information and permission letter home so that can take part in the programme. Return these to the office tomorrow please.

Safety - William St Entrance Please whānau, don’t drive into the school using the William Street entrance. Children can be dropped off on any of our roads (Yates, Ferguson & William) and walk into school.

School Hours are 9-3pm - Early Pick-Ups We appreciate that from time to time events will mean that you will need to pick up your children early - however this seems to be an increasing trend. If you need to pick up your children early as a ‘one-off’, come to the office and sign them out. One of the office staff will call them to the office to meet you. If you need your children to leave school early on a regular basis, please come and talk to one of the Senior Leadership Team to see if there is any way we can help.
