Nathan taught at CBS last year and is a familiar (and welcome) face around the school. We will let you know when Serena has her good news to share!
Parents are invited to help classes in the forest this Wednesday and Thursday. Please come prepared with wet weather footwear and a change of clothing in case of slipping over! Gloves are always handy and a large plastic bag for weeds.

After School Arrangements A SAFETY REMINDER
Y3/4
11:00am Y5/6 and International Students
When children are dismissed from school at 3.00pm the expectation is that parents/caregivers have made arrangements for the care of children, as the school’s responsibility ceases at 3.00 pm unless an arrangement has been made with a parent with the school about their child. This is usually confined to the parent being late because of a traffic hold up on their way to collect their child. OPTIONS FOR CHILDREN AT 3.00 PM
Line up in the bus bay for the 042 bus Go to SKIDs or another after school care provider Wait on the shell area near the bus bay for their parents/caregivers Go home
It is not an option for children to wait in the school grounds for parents/caregivers to meet with them at a time after 3.00pm as the school does not provide supervision and it is unsafe for children to be unsupervised. Children may only remain in the school grounds after 3.00pm if they are the direct supervision of their parent(s) or a caregiver. There are times when a parent/caregiver will be unavoidably delayed. When this happens please contact the office as soon as practicable so we can make arrangements to care for your child.

Two experienced soccer coaches will be visiting the school this Friday (14 August) and have offered to take our Year 5 children for a free lunchtime soccer session. If your Year 5 child is interested in attending please make sure they register their name with Mrs Livingston before Friday.
Vanessa Burmeister (at CBS) is a current member of North Harbour Synchro (a beginner). North Harbour Synchro offers 2 free trial sessions for any Boys (yes!) and girls who would like to give it a try. It’s brilliant training for all round aquatic skills and if kids like dance, gymnastics and being in the water, they should come along for a trial! Amber Fraser-Mackenzie (was at CBS last year, now at Murrays in year 7) is in the Under 12 age group. She’s headed to Perth for a Commonwealth Festival of Synchro in early September where her team will compete against under 12 teams from 10 other Commonwealth countries. This is bound to be an amazing experience for all the swimmers from our club -the only NZ team attending this competition - go North Harbour!
