Next week we excited to welcome a new staff member to IPS. Mrs Candice Bailey and her husband Paul have moved here from Wairoa with their four children. Candice is an experienced teacher in both Early Childhood and Primary Sectors. Candice will be opening a new Year 1 class which will operate out of the Library (sorry Mrs Nash). Students from Moa iti will move through to Mrs Bailey's class toward the latter part of next week after a transition process has been undertaken. We are needing to do this to lower the numbers in Moa iti with Mrs Alice Smith and Mr Rangi Adams as we still have a number of New Entrants to come in before the end of the year.

On Thursday 14 August, twelve Year 7-8 students took part in the Methanex Maths Quiz at the Plymouth Hotel. These twelve students formed three teams. The teams had 20 questions to answer in 30 minutes. Although we didn't receive a placing, we would like to acknowledge the hard work these tamariki put in to practises and problem solving on the night. They represented Inglewood Primary with pride. Well done to these students.

The team of Noah Dalliston, Ethan Farquhar, Caoimhe Leslie-Ellis and Malia Walker (the timekeeper) argued the moot ‘Why school libraries are outdated and should be removed’ and won against Norfolk.

Ethan was best speaker putting together some strong points and ideas as to how town libraries can better serve us and librarians in schools better utilised to teach research skills etc.

Caoimhe was third best speaker with a great presence and awesome links of global impacts around book making, thus the centralisation of books in Town Libraries. Noah did a fantastic job summarising and rebutting with clarity and increased confidence. And of course Malia did a wonderful job timekeeping.

Thanks to Mrs Boyd who has got on board with debating, coaching the students along with Danise O’Sullivan who has some experience with debating and adjudicating.

This week we have enforced prohibition of students access to devices. While we are working though the process of identifying, reviewing and applying a remedy to mitigate future possible events, we take this opportunity to remind all students and families to speak at home about what to do in the event of coming across inappropriate images or messages when on any device, anywhere.

We utilise our REACH values in teaching all at IPS to "do the right thing at the right time for the right reason".

Sadly, we cannot control such content on the Internet, however, we all do undertake and apply control measures where possible.

Here at IPS, we utilise the services of Network 4 Learning, together with our ICT Technicians to provide technical support, advice and guidance with regard to firewall and security.

Again, sadly, in speaking with Network 4 Learning support, we learnt that events such as ours are not uncommon.

Over the past few weeks our e-learning team have been reviewing the many and varied procedures with regard to Digital Technology. These will be finalised on Thursday and all Staff and Students will be asked to sign the revised agreement.

Currently, our Cyber Safety agreement asks students to do the following:

• If I find anything mean or rude or things I know are not acceptable at our school on any ICT device I will:

• Not show others
• · Click on the ‘Hector Safety Button’ or turn off the screen and
• · Get a teacher straight away.

Thank you for your ongoing support and partnership while we all navigate the unknown world of the internet and all it brings.

Some of our Board of Trustees members joined together with other BoT members from our other Kāhui Schools to share, celebrate and discuss. Our Expert Partner Jo Wilson from Leading Learning - Waikato and Kath TaWhiwhirangi Core Education joined with us. Long serving Board Members, Mel Cook (Ing High), Gavin Muir (Kaimata) and Tania Hitchcock (Norfolk) spoke to the 40 attendees with regard to the positive influences and deliberate actions from joining as a Kāhui Ako. Our four foci of : Strengthening Partnerships with Iwi, Hapū, and whanau, Transitions in stages of life, Shared Pedagogy and Access to Services were highlighted and the particular growth and actions evidenced in these areas.

This week we welcome Jiraedo Blackhall and Vicina Miru to Inglewood Primary School.

to Zaidyn Schoenmaekers, Lucy Hancock, Zephy Williams, Cameron Ker, Siobhan Williams, Dyland Langridge and Nautilus Williams who are celebrating their birthday's this week.

Sienna Dobson - For being a model student - always friendly, positive, self motivated, respectful and awesome! Keep it up!

We are looking forward to having a fun filled day. We would love your help, support and participation. Yes, we have the kindy kids coming to compete, an inflatable slide for participants and … wait for it… an adult’s fun race. So put your best foot or even both feet forward. You can dress up in the house colours and race (don’t worry the fun one is a team or a three legged race - for those of us a little more challenged by running). So get prepping and if you can lend a hand let us know at the office.

We would love any interested parents to support cricket development and teams in age group competitions. We need to know ASAP to register teams in the competitions alongside the club organisation.

There have been a number of problems on the Miro Street pedestrian crossing. The traffic and congestion are making it difficult for our young students to manage. We need parents to step up and support us with manning this morning 0830-0855 and afternoon 1455-1515, like our few lovely volunteers are doing now. HELP please. Contact the office to add your name to the roster assist with the safety of our children. Many hands make light work. We would like to not have students manning this in the near future as the traffic is increasing.

Granola: an amazing cereal and snack. Super healthy, filling and fun for kids.

Eat with milk and fruit, yoghurt or add to lunchboxes as a snack. However you have it, it won’t last long!

· Makes approx 1kg. If you need less, just halve the ingredients
I used whole grain oats, but you can use regular oats. You can use any nuts and seeds you like and feel free to add dried fruit once cooled. I don't add dried fruit to ours so the end result isn't very sweet. If you prefer it sweet, then add dried fruit or extra rice syrup. If using extra rice syrup you'll need to add extra oats to soak it up. Aim for an extra 1/2 cup of oats for every extra 1/2 cup of rice syrup
Ingredients:
6 cups organic whole grain or regular rolled oats
1 cup organic pumpkin seeds
1 cup organic sunflower seeds
1 cup organic cashew pieces
1/2 cup organic flaxseed
1.5 cup organic rice syrup
Optional: 1/2 cup organic desiccated coconut, 3/4 cup organic dried fruit (cranberries, raisins, apricots)
Method:
Pre heat oven 190 degrees
Line 2 baking trays (with sides) with baking paper
In large saucepan, gently heat rice syrup until warm and runny
Add all the ingredients to saucepan, except coconut and dried fruit.

· Mix well; ensuring all oats, nuts and seeds are coated

· Divide the mixture between 2 trays (evenly as possible)

· Bake for 15 minutes.

· Swap trays mixing/turning granola to bake evenly.

· Repeat every 10 minutes for a total of 30 minutes cooking time.

· Once the top tray is golden brown, remove from oven.

· move bottom tray to top shelf

· Turn second tray once or twice until golden brown colour

· Leave the granola on trays to cool completely.

· Transfer to a large bowl and mix in the coconut and dried fruit (if using).

· You may need to break up granola into smaller chunks or your preference.

· Store the granola in air tight container. I use a 4 litre Tupperware box I've had for years. Keeps for up to 2 weeks, if you don't eat it before then!

We need more clear 1.25 litre and 2.25 litre bottles. If you have an interest in assisting with environmental projects please contact Mrs Ritchie who would love some support. We have a lot of projects and the Enviro Crew work most Tuesday and Thursday lunchtimes on projects.

Pukeiti Gardens, 2290 Carrington Road, New Plymouth, Taranaki. About 40 mins drive from Inglewood. All ages welcome.

Join us for our third annual Legends of Conservation Adventure. Meet the amazing people carrying out important conservation work throughout Taranaki, and race around some of the most beautiful gardens and rainforest in New Zealand! Admission: Free Please register online. This event is best suited for primary and intermediate children. However all are welcome.

- 09:45 am - race briefing. Your team MUST attend the race briefing in order to compete.
- Race starts at 10 am - 12 with a sausage sizzle lunch provided afterwards, as well as a prize giving (with spot prizes as well as 1st, 2nd, 3rd).

Venue: Pukeiti Gardens - there will be signage to guide you to the start.
There is plenty of parking at the gardens, but make sure you arrive early, as the gardens are popular and the car park may fill up.

Cost: There is no cost but your team might like to give a donation on the day. The proceeds will go towards the Experiencing Marine Reserves programme which provides local children the opportunity to learn to snorkel and visit a marine reserve, as well as marine education.

Teams:
- Your team may be a school team, a family team or a group of friends.
- You can have up to 6 people in your team but two of these must be adults (over 18).
- Your team must stay together - it's a team event.

Rules and Safety Information:
- You must attend the safety briefing.
- You must have two adults in your team.
- Your team must stay together. If you split up, you will be disqualified.
- Make sure your adults carry their fully-charged phones.
- Wear comfortable but sturdy shoes.
- Stay on the track at all times. No one is to use the road.
- Return to the starting point by 12.

Once we have had the safety briefing, you will have 10 minutes to carefully study your map to decide which way you will go. There are a number of routes. You want to gather as many points as you can in two hours. We are using tracks in the garden - the road cannot be used at any time.

The aim of the race is to meet as many conservation legends doing awesome work in Taranaki as you can. Talk to them and fill out your answer sheet, then race to talk to the next legend. There will also be codes and bonus points you must get.

To join this great race, organise your team and register at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/29N3RY7
(Register early, as there is a limit on the number of teams.)
