ALL BLACKS MUFTI DAY!

Don't forget to wear you Black & White for this Friday's Mufti Day (18th November) And this time don't bring your gold coin! Please bring a bottle for our Food Festival Bottle Bank instead! Some ideas for what to bring are: sauces, jams, preserves, lotions, perfumes, shampoos, body wash, bubble bath, drinks etc. Make sure they are new and unopened ready for our Festival next year.

See you then!

Parent Helpers Needed!

On Thursday 23rd June the school will be having a sports and quiz day and we need parent helpers to assist us, support us and enjoy the day with us.

Please contact your child's classroom teacher or return your parent helper form if you are able to help out.

Travelwise WALK and WHEEL to School Day

On Wednesday 22nd June we are having a walk and ride to school day. On Tuesday 21st children will bring home a token. If they come to school in a 'travelwise way' on Wednesday morning they can drop their token in a special box at Cutfields Corner before school. The tokens will be tallied and the best class will be awarded the Travelwise Trophy. The 'Auckland City Transport Mascot' will be present, giving out spot prizes so walk, scooter, cycle, car pool, bus, train or drop and walk your way to school on Wednesday the 22nd June!!

Royal Oak Primary School HUI

Next Wednesday evening (22nd June) we are holding a Hui as part of our consultation with Maori families. The evening begins at 5:45pm and concludes at 7:30pm. If you have not received an invitation and would like to attend or would like more information please let us know asap.

LINES FOR LOUIS!

Louis is a Year 3 at our school and he has Type 1 Diabetes.

He has to monitor his insulin levels often and throughout the day and be medicated as needed. Louis now has the opportunity to have a pump that would do all of this for him and make life much easier. Unfortunately the cost for the pump alone is $10,000 and then an ongoing cost of $300 per month and there is no government subsidy....

Royal Oak Primary wants to support the fundraising project for Louis to enable him

to have the freedom of other children at our school.

Mrs Bruce has therefore organised a mufti day for Friday 3rd June called 'Lines for Louis'. Please come to school wearing lines, checks or stripes and bring a donation to help the fundraising.
