Library Revamp
Plans
are in full swing for a school library 'revamp'.
Many
of you would be aware that the library has not been fully functioning for some
time. It is a very valuable resource that we are eager to see back up and
running.
The
revamp will include a working bee within the next month - to repaint and
possible book drive in the future to generate new and exciting books.
OUR
CURRENT NEEDS:
* If
you have any spare white or cream paint that you are happy to donate or are
interested in helping paint to the school please let Rachel Hewitt know by
emailing: rachelhe@mahu.school.nz
Interschool Netball
We have the privilege of hosting the
Interschool Netball Competition to be held at Wellsford on Tuesday 20th
May. We will be running the canteen as a fundraiser for the school. If you can
bake or provide sandwich fillings e.g. cheese, ham, tomato, lettuce we would be
grateful. All baking, fillings should be delivered to the staffroom by Monday
afternoon or before school on Tuesday.
Uniform Update
Unfortunately our uniform supplier has informed us that there is
a further delay in supplying the order that we sent them in early February. We
have been advised that our order should be here at the end of May. In particular
there have been difficulties in supplying our skorts/shorts and polar fleeces.
There are valid reasons for the delays and our supplier is hopeful that
we will not have a long wait like this again!
Trousers
Please advise the school office if you need to order black
trousers that can be worn with the uniform in the winter (terms 2 & 3).
These trousers are $40 a pair and we will order them on an as needed basis (so
they will not be held in stock). The preference was for the trousers to
be the same sand colour as the current skorts and shorts but we have not been
able to source a supplier who can supply the sand colour in small quantities
but our current supplier can provide the black trousers on an as required
basis.

Yummy Stickers
Each year Yummy apples run a promotion to provide sports gear
for schools and the more stickers we collect the more sports gear we receive. Thank
you those who have not stopped collecting since last year you have given this
year’s collection a great start.
Please collect stickers and labels. Completed sheets can be
handed in to the office and replacement sheets can be collected in the office.
Last year we received $237 worth of sports gear and this year we
are aiming for a new record. So keep those stickers and labels rolling in
folks.
Do you have a 4 year
old?
If you have a child who will turn 5 this year or know of any
other children who will be joining us at Mahurangi Christian School this year
could you please collect and complete an
enrolment form. June will be
delighted to supply you with the enrolment pack.

calling all parents to give a little bit of time to assist with the Netball
Tournament which MCS can use as a fundraiser.

bakers, sandwich makers, drink dispensers, food sellers and pie warmers on the

If you can

reception so we can organise a task force.
Thanks
in advance, Isabelle.
