Well-being

Air Quality Information - Helen Thew, Cross Campus Principal

Air Quality levels are posted on our Students’, Parents’ and Staff Firefly Dashboards.

Links to our policies and procedures can be found here.

Air Quality levels are automatically read three times a day: Early morning, 11.00am and 1.30pm.

To further understand what happens when air quality levels reach higher than normal levels, please access the presentation given to parents in November here.

Students may come to school wearing masks but they are not obligated to do so.

With our new pre-cooled, fresh air systems in place, students can then remove their masks when they come into class.

Residential preparation

Monday's 'in school' part of residential is just three sleeps away for 4A, 4D, 4L and 4K.  For Monday's activities, students will need to wear their own clothes (sun safe and sensible shoes) and bring their swimming kit and towels as well as a spare change of clothes.

On the Tuesday morning of departing please send your child to school in their Patana PE kit. The bag drop will be at the front of the school outside the Security Office.

SUGGESTED PACKING LIST

PE lessons during residential weeks - a message from the Primary PE team

PE lessons will continue during residential weeks for those classes that are in school. There is likely to be a change of teacher, activity or mix of classes taught together whilst we cover those children and teachers who are away on residential.

Therefore, please remember to bring your PE kit to School, including football boots!

Many thanks!
