A note from the Principal
This week, we have had a fantastic time exploring numbers! Long-time Patana collaborators
Andrew Jeffrey and Liz Gibbs have helped make our Maths Week truly inspiring.
Students have enjoyed problem-solving activities, hands-on explorations,
timetable competitions, and even a Maths magic show!
We are also delighted to invite you to a Parent Workshop on Tuesday at 8am,
where you can learn more about how to support your child's maths development.
Do not forget next week is a short week for us, with school closed on Friday.

Calling all parent volunteers
Are you interested in helping out in Year 4? We are looking for parents to support our students with their daily reading. Please see the information below. If you have any questions about this, please reach out to your child's class teacher.
PE
Children should come to school in their PE kits on the days that they have PE lessons.
When your child has swimming lessons, they should come to school with the swim kit on and their uniform on - NOT their PE kit.
All students are expected to get changed into their school uniform after a PE lesson.
PE KIT:
Swimming lessons require black or Patana swim kit, swim hat, goggles and towel. Long sleeved rash vest / suit optional.
Handling: Normal PE kit, hat and water bottle.
Remember that students are expected to wear a different pair of shoes for school and for PE lessons.

Birthdays
Parents should not bring in class gifts, balloons, bubbles, whistles, games, drinks etc. Your child's class teacher will politely ask you to take these home with you. We enjoy celebrating birthdays by sharing a birthday treat such as donuts or cakes.
We are a NUT FREE school. Please when ordering birthday treats double check before bringing treats on the campus.
Many toppings offered by some donut shops have flaked almonds in their toppings and peanut butter fillings. If you bring these in, unfortunately, we will have to send them home.
- Individual treats can be brought into school with your child in the morning.
- Please agree a time with the teacher in advance.
- Children will be expected to eat any birthday treats outside of classrooms.
- Parents can join in the celebrations.
The following Year 4 children have celebrated their birthdays this week:
- Punyawee
- Riccardo
- Sipim
- Punn
- Harry
We wish you a very happy birthday!
