Hi Everyone, House results at the end of Week 6 This is my third term now with Fairfield Primary as Chaplain. It is hard to believe the year is almost at an end. Most weeks, on a Wednesday, I arrive during the lunch break and then spend the afternoon helping out where I can with one of the classes. I am delighted that the kids mostly now remember who I am and greet me as Whaea Claire. I confess I mostly have to be reminded of children’s names but I am really enjoying my time around the school. As Chaplain, my hope is to be helpful, my aim is to get to know folk: the children; teachers; support staff; parents; other caregivers. Basically, I am a safe person to talk to and enjoy discovering something about you. The stuff spoken about ‘may’ be ‘tipping you over currently’ - that is OK. It is up to you ‘what’ you share with me and it is up to me to hold that safely, in confidence. There are some good resources available in the community and part of my role is to help connect folk to these when appropriate. By in large though, most of my conversations are just about getting to know the folk of Fairfield Primary. I am loving the warm supportive environment that is already here. Because my time at school is so small, I am very happy to be contacted outside Tane Tangaroa Ruaumoko Tawhirimatea of my visits – 027 66 357 44. I may not always be immediately available but will respond to texts or voice messages left when able and welcome the contact. Kind regards If you would like to catch up over a coffee, let’s find a time, mostly likely evenings or weekend afternoons and I continue to be available during school holidays too. Warm Regards Claire Jones - Chaplain Anne Johnson PRINCIPAL Proudly supporting our local School Local childcare with a difference FAIRFIELD First Steps Donny is known for its Child care and education from birth to 5 year olds PRIMARY SCHOOL home-like environment.
