Welcome to our new children and their families who have joined us this term. Our AGM was held in June and we welcome our new Board Members.

Preschool Governing Board
Katrina Van der Gulik, Nic Bennett, Shanon Garden, Belinda Buchanan, Mandy Trass, Karina Bohle, Kat Gellatly.

Learning at Preschool this Month
The children are enjoying learning Mandarin Chinese with Lamees on Wednesdays. Some of the experiences at Preschool are the sharing of baking. Quickly Preschool transforms into a café as we set up to enjoy our home baked treats. We promote children’s learning of caring for the environment by gardening, composting, recycling and much more. The children are enjoying many learning experiences such as sewing, thanks to Tasmin’s Nana Carole. They are learning about three dimensional shapes, creating robots, printing techniques and much more.

Social Evening
Our social evening to welcome our new families was held on Friday 30th August. This was a fun meet and greet occasion with families enjoying a take out dinner at Preschool. The children enjoyed our special guest story teller Lara Hania who shared stories with us all. Thank you to everyone involved in making our family whānau evening such a success.

Recycling Cardboard and Paper
We really appreciate the support from the community to recycle and this not only reduces our carbon footprint, it also helps funds for Preschool.

Reminders
For Hall bookings you need to call Carol Christian-Price on 362 8702. We break for the school holidays on Friday 27th September and reopen on Monday 14th October.

Special thanks to Rotorua Duck Tours for our trip this term. This was a most enjoyable experience for the children seeing much more of Okareka.

Enrolments
We do have limited spaces for next term and the new year. Please let any families with preschool children know about Preschool in your area. For enquires please call Debbie now on 362 8606, after hours 345 9136.
