What a great cause to get behind! Cross Country TrainingWe have started our cross-country training. At this stage it will just be within our school grounds. This is a reminder to please make sure your child has a change of clothes packed and a towel to help dry their feet and legs. Make sure these are in a separate bag and all clothing, towels, etc. are clearly named. If your child can not participate they must bring a note from home or a medical certificate as cross-country is part of our school curriculum. An Evening with Kathryn BerkettRecently, Delene Jamieson and I heard Kathryn Berkett speak at a Papakura Principals' Conference. We were so impressed with her sensible approach to getting children to make good decisions and to act appropriately socially, some of the local schools decided it would be good to get her back to present to staff and parents. Therefore, on Thursday 20 June, she will hold a session for parents at Hingaia Peninsula School. Whilst there is no cost for parents to attend, the learning will be valuable. Ag Day & Country Fair - Saturday 28th SeptemberThe FoTHS team are pleased to confirm the date of this year's renamed Ag Day & Country Fair. This is the biggest fundraising event of the year so we rely heavily on support from the school and local community to make it a success. Please save Saturday 28th September – it will be even bigger and better than last year! Animals this year will include lambs, goats and chickens – however calves will NOT be allowed under recommendation from Biosecurity NZ to help eliminate the spread of Mycoplasma bovis. In addition, we also plan to bring back some of the old fashioned activities and stalls to celebrate what makes us a uniquely rural school. If you would like to get involved with Ag Day, have a product or service that you chttp://tehihi.schooldocs.co.nz/index.htm?toc.htm?1893.htman donate, or just have some great ideas then please get in touch (Gina Beck 021 929 452).
