WAIHI EAST SCHOOL
SCHOOL NEWSLETTER 33/2015
27 October 2015
Kia ora,
I hope you enjoyed the long weekend. Three day weekends are so much better than two day weekends!!
Tomorrow we head off to Otawhiwhi Marae in Bowentown. Please ensure your child is dressed in uniform.
We aim to leave school at 9.15am and return by 2.30pm. Thank you to whanau who are attending and supporting
this day. Everyone is welcome to join us, if you have a free hour, come on down. A mufti day with sausage sizzle
will be held this week to help pay for the bus and costs involved with this opportunity, with other mufti days/
sausages sizzles happening over the term. Thank you for your support.
Classes are getting organized for the Twilight market. Class stalls include art work, fudge, seedlings, fun in
a bag, games and activities. Please let your friends and whanau know about this exciting evening. Flyers will be out
in the community in the near future. Keep the 19th of November free!
Tomorrow we celebrate the graduation of Arama, Devon and Lennox from Kaihautu. Kaihautu is a leadership
programme organized by Harley North and Kylie Finch (Resource Teacher of Learning and Behaviour). We
congratulate our lads on their efforts and development over the two terms and pass on our thanks to all tutors/
people involved in making a difference for tamariki across the Waihi community.
The Board of Trustees are looking for whanau who would like to support keeping the pool open for the
summer holidays. Last summer we had an amazing team who opened/closed the pool, and completed all testing
requirements. If you are available to help, please let us know. We do like having the pool open for your use.
This term we are trialing the ICONZ programme with our year 5-6 lads. Iconz is a programme that runs in
communities, which is operated by local churches. They have a blokey culture where the men, who are good mates,
share their life skills with a new generation of kiwi blokes with the purpose of inspiring them to become kiwi
Icons. We aim to run three mornings this term, and depending on the outcome, widen this programme to other
year groups. Notes were sent home last week, please return these if you would like your child to attend.
Nga mihi nui,
Emily Hargreaves (ehargreaves@east.school.nz)

DREAM GIVER
Dark Night
Running from scary monsters
Exploring the dark woods
Amazing leaves fall from the tall trees
Mega dreams all night long from the Dream Giver
Sleeping quietly in my bed when the dreams come
By Tegan O-F, room 4, age 7.
The Dream Giver sneaks into my room in the
dark of night. He brings golden dream eggs.
I start to dream….. I dream of a delicious
cupcake land. In cupcake land, I see Mr and
Mrs Liquorice. They give me a soft and
sweet cupcake bed. I fall straight asleep. I
wake up and say “Thank You”. I wake up in my own bed
and run downstairs and tell Mum and Dad what happened! They say “Wow, that is an amazing dream Bella!”
By Bella P, room 4, age 8.
Well in one and a half weeks I'm going to Brisbane Australia to see
my Mum and her boyfriend. They have two dogs and they’re boys,
Bluey and Larry. Mum and Adam foster dogs—they’re fostering a
puppy now. Mum and Adam are really sporty, they go for 5k walks
every day with the dogs, they go to the gym, and eat healthily. I will
be going for 5k walks too. My Mum is really short. I will be able to fit
her shoes and clothes that she doesn't fit anymore-yay! My Mum has
lived in Australia for 7 years now. I haven’t seen her in 7 years. The
things we’re going to do are: go to Dream World, Sea World, Wet ‘n
Wild and something else-we’re going shopping heaps. I have about
200 hundred dollars in Australian money, I’ve been saving for a long
time. I cant wait yay! My Mum can’t
wait either. I’ve never meet my
Mum’s boyfriend. This is the first
time I have ever been on a plane
and I’m going on the plane alone.
