NO SCHOOL TOMORROW

Kia Ora Everyone,

Welcome back everyone; it is so wonderful to be back and
ready for an exciting new year here at Waiouru School. A
big welcome to our new school families! It was great to see
so many of you at our Meet the Teacher Evening on
Tuesday. I hope you all enjoyed it and were able to put some more faces to
names. We have a lot on this term, so please check our school calendar and notices
regularly so that you dont miss out.
Yesterday, Tawhio and I took Carie (Mrs King) down to Palmerston North for her first
reading recovery training day and meeting for school leadership. This is a very
exciting opportunity for eight of our children, over the year, to receive this well
researched, effective form of reading and writing intervention. Reading Recovery has
been in schools for 32 years now and we are privileged to be allocated the funds to
provide it.
This year we have two vacancies on our school BOT of Trustees, we have begun the
process of filling these vacancies by appointing a returning officer for an election,
Shona at the CSO. If you are interested please come in and have a chat with either
Kerry or I. It is a very rewarding experience, and a great way to be involved with the
school.

For your information: We have had a couple of cases of Impetigo - School Sores reported to us,
which have been treated and taken care of, but I just wanted to let you know that it has been around
as it is a very contagious infection. If you notice that your child has any sores which are not healing,
or have a red ring or crusty yellow weeping, please cover it and take them to the doctors for
treatment. You do need antibiotics to get rid of it. More information can be found
here: http://www.kidshealth.org.nz/impetigo-school-sores
