At today's assembly Thea received a certificate.

Ka wani kei, Thea, we are proud of you.

Jack also received a certificate, awarded by the School Leaders, for keeping our grounds tidy by picking up rubbish. Ka pai, Jack.






The top three Mathletes for Week 7 are Jack, Liam and Harry. Jack was also named as Mathlete of the Week. Well done, boys, and everyone who gained a certificate last week. Keep working at your maths.

Mathlete of the Week Jack

This morning we had a visit from a dietitian. She talked to us about healthy eating and what good food options for our lunch boxes are. We learnt that there are 16 teaspoons of sugar in a 500ml bottle of coke. That measured out to half a cup! We were amazed at how much sugar is in fizzy and energy drinks. We also learnt that there are 5 teaspoons of sugar in a small carton of flavoured milk. The best drinks are water and green or yellow topped milk. Please support our Healthy Eating topic by providing sandwiches and fruit or raw vegetables in your child's lunch box.

Looking ahead to the rest of the week:
Tuesday: Run, Jump, Throw - please bring sports/running shoes and (for girls) shorts
Wednesday: Stations of the Cross in the Prayer Garden
Thursday: Holy Thursday
Friday: Good Friday - no school

Please return all Easter raffle books and money to the office - Room 13 still has a number outstanding.
