Inglewood Primary School

Learning to think, to do, to be

Ako ki te whakaaro, ako ki te mahi, ako kia ora ai te mauri

Our Vision: To provide a teaching and learning environment where of those involved: demonstrate respect, expect the best, achieve through opportunity, communicate actively & feel good and safe

We certainly cannot complain about the weather this week. We have enjoyed many activities, both inside and out of the teaching spaces.

We finished off the week with a fabulous tabloid block, organised by Puke Haupapa students. The Year 8 students ran the events and the Y7s showed their leadership by leading the teams they were mentoring in. Many thanks to all staff, especially Tracy White and Cody Huta for the organisation.

Please remember to look at our school events calendar and or list in the newsletters to ensure you are aware of important dates coming up.

Please remember there is NO school Friday 5 March as all staff have Professional Development with other members of Te Kahui Ako o Kohanga Moa on this day.

This is a long standing arrangement we have around Taranaki Anniversary Weekend trying to cause least disruption where possible. We are mindful this year, with a later start this may cause inconvenience. Our last day for the school is Friday 16 December to make up for the later start at the beginning of the year.

to Ava Costar, Luke Davy, Alex Munro, Holly Smith, Joshua Malyon and Jaxon Smith who are celebrating their birthdays this week.

Welcome to Lachlan Evans who has joined us this week at IPS.

Please see attached flow chart if you have a query of concern here at Inglewood Primary School.

Please remember to sign all children out at the office if you are collecting them early from school for any reasons. Thank you

School students and staff along with Parentlink are holding a gala day on Saturday 20th March 2021 10.00am-2.00pm at school and we need extra helpers on the day to make this a success. Many hands make light work.

Your child’s teacher has probably let you know what their class is doing at the gala and have asked for parent helpers. Could you please let your teacher know if you are able to help. We will also need extra helpers to run other events like a big dig and helping on the bbq. It does not need to be for the whole day any time you have available would be appreciated. Please email the Parentlink team at parentlink@inglewood.school.nz

We have been offered some firewood to raffle off at the gala but no transport. If anyone has a z trailer with a cage that could be spared for a week or so could you please email Parentlink.

We are hoping to raise enough funds to finance shade sails over the junior and senior playgrounds to keep our children safe. We are looking forward to this event and hope to make it an annual day out for the Inglewood Primary School community.

Thank you

Parentlink Team

Hi, My name is Jayde McLeman and I attend Inglewood Primary. In March 2021 we are going on camp to Forrest Lakes in Otaki. I thought it would be a great idea to fundraise the cost to help myself and other children attend camp. Shand and the team at H & H Firewood Supplies Ltd have been nice enough to supply a truck load of wood to raffle off. (Value approximately $350). Tickets will cost $2 each or 3 tickets for $5. These are available at the school office. Winner will be drawn under supervision on 26 February and notified by phone. Time and date of delivery will be arranged with winner. Thank you so much for your help, all proceeds will go towards the costs of my camp and to the school to help fund other pupils costs.
