Dear Parents and Friends of the School,
A very special welcome to the 16 students we enrolled this term, and none were new entrants. Our roll is currently at 416 and all our classes are at or above their optimum number. We welcomed students from France, (returning to NZ), Russia, India, Germany, Korea, Australia, Mynanmar and Bayswater. We have 45 nationalities which is fantastic.
We will start our next new entrants class on the 29 May with Mrs Holdich taking this class.
Over the holidays we appointed Mrs Maria Winslade to a fixed term position for Terms 3 & 4 to take Room 17 (Yr 3) as Miss Wallace has been granted leave to travel. Maria comes with a lot of experience and leadership knowledge.
Thank you so much for your support of the Teacher Only Day last week, when the staff had professional development for the New Curriculum Refresh.
We have our next Teacher Only Day on Friday 2 June as part of the Kahui Ako (all Peninsula Schools). All Peninsula School teachers will be once again having professional development on the Curriculum Refresh and Social Sciences. School will be closed on Friday 2 June. Monday 5 June is King’s Birthday weekend. This may allow some families to have an extended long weekend.
