Henare Parata is our Roseneath School Kapa Haka tutor and he has offered to run an introductory Te Reo Māori course which will generally follow the structure of first year tertiary Te Reo Māori study. In Term three the course will run on Mondays from 4:30-5:30pm. These classes will cost $20 a session. We are offering supervision of your child at our Roseneath After School Care programme in our school hall from 4:30-5:30 for parents and caregivers attending the Te Reo Māori sessions. If you would like to enrol, please email office@roseneath.school.nz with the number of adults attending the course, and if you would like to enrol your children in RASC supervision for that time. Thank you for your interest in this course. We know that this time and day won’t suit all of you, so depending on how we go in Term 3, we will look to offer the course again at a different time in

Term 4 to suit others that might not be able to attend this time around. QUIZ NIGHT: PRIZES PLEASE!

Please help us raise funds to continue our playground refurbishment The famous Roseneath School Quiz Night is coming up on 5 Sept where our annual raffle will be drawn.

MIHI WHAKATAU (A WELCOME CEREMONY FOR NEW FAMILIES)

Thank you for supporting our first mihi whakatau where we welcomed new students and their families to our school. Our senior student leaders were impressive with karanga, kōrero and supporting our new children to feel welcome. It was a really special afternoon. We hope to make this a bit of a new tradition for our school in the future.

Come along and hear about the year 7 and 8 programme at Roseneath School. This evening will be of particular interest to parents of our Year 5 and 6 children as you think ahead, but everyone is welcome! We will share what the weekly programme includes, some of the extra leadership and learning opportunities, and answer any questions you might have.

ROSENEATH SCHOOL FUN RUN, FRIDAY 5TH JULY, AFTER A SHORT ASSEMBLY!

This year we are celebrating the end of term and wrapping up our cross country PE unit with a Fun Walk/Run event at school. We'll have the music blaring and a spirit of fun and participation. Feel free to dress up- wacky wigs, crazy costumes- anything goes! Some of us might be trying to be a bit 'Universe' themed and some of us might be rocking the 80's activewear vibe you saw last year. All families including younger siblings are welcome to dress up, cheer us on, and to join in with us on the run if you're keen! UPPER BRIDGE IN THE NEWS

MATARIKI AND STARGAZING EVENING, THURSDAY 4TH JULY, 5:30PM ONWARDS

On Thursday 4th July we have the Wellington Astronomical Society joining us with their telescopes for an evening of stargazing and celebration for the Māori New Year. We will start our Family and Whānau evening at 5:30pm with our school performing waiata and kapa haka for you. There will be food and beverages available to purchase as a fundraiser for the Year 5 and 6 camp. Feel free to bring a favourite family board game or activity to do as a whānau together, and if you have your own binoculars or telescope you might like to bring that too! We will go ahead with the rest of the evening even if it is too cloudy to stargaze.
