REPORTS

Today we are sending home your child’s mid year report! Please check their bags for this. We hope you find the information in the report useful and that you feel a sense of pride in what your child has achieved. We are very proud of our learners and know that each child is different and learns in their own way! If you have any questions about your child’s report please send your child’s teacher a message on Seesaw and they would be happy to make a time to meet with you after the term break.

RAFFLE

Thank you to everyone for supporting our school raffle this year! We really appreciate you trying to sell as many tickets as you could. Every little bit of money raised makes a difference and will go towards creating a new playscape in the central courtyard! The winners of the prizes have been contacted. Congratulations to all prize winners.

A huge thank you to Anne Crooks, a long time friend of the school who once again volunteered to run the raffle. Anne is a wonderful friend of Bayview School and is a great role model for helping others. Thank you Anne, we appreciate you!

BAYVIEW MATARIKI SHOWCASE 

Thank you to everyone who managed to come to our Matariki showcase last week! We had the most wonderful turn out of parents, grandparents and friends of Bayview School for our mihi whakatau. It was a delight to see so many people come and share in this special celebration. We are so incredibly proud of our learners and the work they produced. It was fabulous being able to share our learning with you!

A massive thank you to Adelaine Arias and Sarah Fink for leading the showcase. We are lucky to have such amazing and passionate teachers and support staff.
