FANTASTIC FRANKLEY SCHOOL CARNIVAL GROCERY RAFFLE

What is our raffle all about? Every year Frankley School runs a grocery raffle for the gala which last year raised nearly $5000 for our terrific school.  For us to achieve this amount of money we need donations of groceries and lots of help to sell tickets from parents, grandparents and whanau in the school community.  The Carnival date is set for Sunday the 12th November 2017 – mark it in your calendar now if you haven’t already!   It may seem a long way off but preparation for our fantastic grocery raffle (quoted “as the best in town”) is now underway.

What can you win? Our Prize pool consists of 15 beautiful baskets of groceries which will all have been donated by the children following the Donation Roster overleaf.  We need a variety of groceries, to make the baskets look delectable!  We are not able to use expired goods in the raffle so please check carefully that they will not expire prior to 12th November 2017.  The first prize also receives a beautiful iced Christmas cake.   

Just for our kids – we also run a class competition.  Grocery boxes will be available in each classroom and a running tally for each class is kept.   The class with the highest number of items collected wins a ‘Milo, Movie and Munchie’ date in Term 4.  There will be one for each syndicate – Junior and Senior.  We will also have 10 golden ticket prizes too!  For each full book sold, complete the golden ticket with your child’s name and they will go into a draw to win one of 10 student prizes which will be drawn at assembly before the carnival!

How do we sell raffle tickets?  As per last year, we will be sending a book of 10 raffle tickets home with each child to sell to friends, family and neighbours in our community. Tickets are $2 each and will be sent home next term for a period of 2 weeks.

We also need awesome volunteers to sell tickets in 2 hour timeslots at Countdown Spotswood on selected days in the 3 weeks before the Carnival.

If you are able to help with this superb fundraiser please contact Karrie Crowe via croweners@yahoo.co.nz or via my mobile: 0273661918

Frankley School visits Muru - Raupatu Marae

A huge thank you to Mr Ritai, Mrs Trinder and their whanau for organising our trip to the Marae today. It was wonderful to watch our Kapahaka group perform in their new uniform.

Thank you also for the Hangi!

After Student Led Conferences ~ Suggestions, carry on with questions.

Hi everyone

 

It's been a few weeks now since we ran our Student Led Conferences. We were very proud of our students as they shared their achievements, their goals and focus areas with you. If you wee unable to make it that week you are welcome anytime. In fact we welcome you visiting the class to catch up with your child. Please let us know first.
 
We encourage you to keep talking to your child about their learning. Question them, get them to show you examples and explain what they are learning. If hey can't give you an answer tell them to work on it and ask them again the next day.


Ask them about their knowledge goal for Maths.
Ask them about their basic facts. (Have a plan for learning these at home.)
Ask them about the book they are reading, have ongoing conversations over the time they are reading it.
Ask about their writing, what's the purpose? Who might the audience be? What have they done to make their writing great?

This pamphlet has a few suggestions.

Year 6 Children Young Leader's Trip to Palmerston North 15 May

Hi everyone

Please note: ( Sorry we may have missed this out in the earlier newsletter.)

Our suggestion is that students have a light snack on awakening if needed and bring a packed breakfast with them (Up and Go, muesli bars etc).

For the day, students will need a daypack with snacks for morning tea, afternoon tea and lunch including a water bottle. They will need to ensure they are in tidy clothes, covered in footwear and have something warm to put on should it get cold.

Please could all Year 6 students wear their Leadership Badge.

Students are able to purchase a special pin to wear as a young leader. ($5.00) We strongly recommend students buy the pin. We would like to ask no more than ten dollars is included for any extra items available for purchase.

We will be stopping for dinner at Hawera McDonalds on the way back to New Plymouth. Students will be given their dinner choice at school and this will be preordered for us. The school is covering the cost of this meal.

We will be taking our school health information. Please notify us of any medical information or needs that may be different from what would currently be on record, or anything you wish to draw specific attention to.

Dear Whanau
Young Leaders Conference Monday 15 May 2017
Thank you for returning your permission slips for your child to attend the Young Leader’s Conference.
Central Energy Trust Arena Monday 15th May 2017 9.30am to 2.30pm
We have all 41 year 6 students attending with Mr Anderson, Mrs McAllister. Mr Scott Hale will also be attending to help with the supervision of our students. We have booked a bus to transport us to and from Palmerston North. To meet the starting time of 9.30am we would need all students at the front gate by 5.00 am! Our aim is to be back at school by 7.30pm. We plan as in other years to have tea in Hawera McDonalds on the way back. 

“The event programme will benefit any student who demonstrates a willingness to develop their leadership skills.” 

You can find links to previous years young leaders days and more information at
http://nyldnz.org/
The objectives of NYLD are

• ●  Inspiration
  
• ●  Connection
  
• ●  Student empowerment
  
• ●  Promoting positivity
  
• ●  Motivation
  
• ●  Education
  The cost per child is $80, this will be reduced to $60 for those children who attended camp, as a camp refund (the tickets are $42.00 each - early bird price) and as mentioned in the earlier newsletter, the cost per child has also been subsidised by money raised through the selling of juices and pizza through term 1 and the continuation of this in term 2. We encourage all our Year 6 students to support Pizza and Juicie sales!
  We ask that money for this event be sent to school before Monday 08 May. If your child is unable to attend the day we are not able to refund the ticket as this is pre purchased and non refundable. 
  
  Thanking you Merryl and Brendon
