Staff vs Students Netball Game - Term 3, Week 10 2017

GAME ON!

In the Senior HQ we always enjoy some fun challenges of staff vs students in various sports.  Term 3's sport was netball against our stunning Avonhead Senior A Netball Team, coached this season by Katrina Roberts.  On Tuesday the 26th of September at lunch time, there was a lively but quite serious and competitive game umpired by Miss Aitken.  Each team worked exceptionally hard with the teachers coming out on top with a victorious win of 15-7.  Thanks for the great competition girls and thanks to all our many spectators!  Term 4's event will be a game of touch!    Mrs Moore

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!

This week we have a couple different additions to the regular schedule. On Tuesday after technology, Mrs Moore will be taking our speech finalists to the Rotary Speech competition at Isleworth. On Wednesday morning, the HQ will be hosting a special Avonhead Cantamath competition in the hall! More information will come on this, just make sure you come with your best problem solving mindset on Wednesday.

Other things to note:
- The athletic sport competition will be held week 1 of term 4. Practices will continue every Friday until then.
- Camp is coming up fast as it is occurring week 2 of term 4. Please make sure any medical forms that have not been handed in get to your homeroom teacher ASAP.
- Burnside high school testing is on this Friday the 22nd of September.

That is all for this week. Happy Monday, stay dry!!

CALENDAR ART ALERT!

Here are the home room photos as promised, so you can view the calendar art at home.  Hopefully you can zoom in to have a look.  The art is also in the Senior HQ with each home room teacher if you would like a closer look!  We are really proud of the effort the students put in.  Sample products are on display in the school library if you wish to have a look - mouse pads, greeting cards, calendars, note pads etc are available to order with your child's art on it.  The order forms went home yesterday - spare notices are in the HQ.  We hope you will support this fundraising effort - they make great Christmas presents!

Term 3 Week 8, 2017

Welcome! I hope everyone has had a lovely start to spring! This week we worked very hard completing calendar art which will have the chance to be printed into calendars, cards, note pads and more! Details on those orders will come out soon.

Next week is the house signing event! The school will gather for the show Friday afternoon for a very exciting showcase of the talent at Avonhead School.

Camp medical forms went out this week. Please fill this out fully and honestly as this information is very important when travelling to camp. They are due back to the homeroom teachers as soon as possible. Bunk request forms will be handed out soon.

Six of the top placing students in the speech competition will be competing in the Isleworth Speech Competition. Make sure to wish them good luck!

It was announced that the school will be hosting a market day on November 3rd. Make sure to get thinking on what you would like to sell during this time.

Have a good weekend!
