Kia ora everyone. We've had our biggest return of students today and this is fantastic.
We continue to follow Ministry guidelines about health and hygiene, physical distancing and being aware of anxiety and trauma brought on by the lockdown. Our staff participated in an anxiety and trauma workshop before students arrived and have a pretty good idea of what to look for and how to help students. But we really want more students to come back!
Parents, you are super friendly at the gates and this is much appreciated.
One grumble I have on behalf of parents as well, is about parents stopping on the yellow lines outside the gates, or stopping infront of the gates. Let's not do that and keep all our students safe, especially as the rain makes everything just a little bit more dangerous.
If you have any worries or just need to talk abit more before your child returns to school, you can contact us through our emails or by setting up an appointment.
That reminds me, the gates are open from 8:15 to 9am. It's very hard for us to keep coming to the gates after 9am to let late students in. It's a good idea to time your children's arrival at school just after 8:15 so you know the gates will be open. This morning a parent rang me, told me to shut up and hung up when I said I wouldn't open the gates at 8am. Sorry but we've shared our opening times and we've been very flexible compared to many other schools who don't open until 8:45. We have to be confident that all our staff are in class and the rooms have been disinfected before our students come in at 8:15. Just a reminder too that SKIDs is operating for those parents who have to go to work early and need care before we open our gates.
Lastly, thank you to those parents who have sent in the school laptops. These have to come back when requested so please start bringing them in so that we can issue them back to students to use in class. Have a great long weekend this weekend. Thank you Queen of England for this day to relax and reflect.
Cheers

Kia ora everyone
We are looking to have a number of pergola built next to our outdoor stage. We want to create a little village in that part of the school so need qualified builders to quote the job. If you'd already quoted on the fale last year, you're welcome to come back to us with a quote for these pergola. We can discuss exact measurements once you make your interest known and visit us on site. We will start this week in the hopes that our school community can be empowered with this legacy project. Then we will go out in the Manurewa community if there's no contract made. Please email me directly at jolenem@claytonpark.school.nz if you are interested in a site visit and a korero (discussion) about our vision. Cheers. Jolene ... See MoreSee Less

Kia ora everyone. The studio newsletters went home today - check them out. Some of our year 8s got onto the bike track today for its opening. We won't make a huge song and dance about the track until we can open the pump side of it. Should have some footage to show you this time next week with the pump track in action. We'll have the younger students on the flat track over the rest of the week so everyone gets a go. As usual we started with the Year 8s because they've been waiting so long for the building project to be completed and it was also their idea to get one installed!
Other site works: We've had another huge shade installed, almost all our fruit trees are now in thanks to Mr Morgan and our Year 8s. Our new nature playground is being installed in July outside Studio 1 (yay) and the Kohanga Reo modifications hopefully will be completed in the next few weeks. We are hoping to get some funding for the vege and rongoa gardens on the Wattle Farm Road side but aren't sure if Oke Trust will come back to us after waiting two years for the building project to finish. If not, we'll just get on with it and know our students will step up to the physical work needed to get the gardens built and planted. We're going to get some passionfruit vines on the new fencing by the terraces and fingers are crossed that they'll be good to go there;
I'm still forging ahead with our ANZAC memorial on the grounds. Originally we were hoping to put it close to the road, Wattle Farm side, but it gets a bit swamped down in that corner. I think it will go by our flagpole at the front of the atea. We just need the students to get on with the iron poppies and so forth to complete that project;
Very soon we will reveal the name of our buildings as gifted by our kaumatua based at the Manurewa Marae. We'll likely do this when the carvings are mounted on our waharoa. We'd love to see our families celebrate both these legacies with us so we'll keep you up to date on the progress;
Finally, we think we will mount our book arch to the entrance of the library in the next week. We will keep asking our families to contribute $1 to get one of the books on the arch labeled with your family name. Thank you to those whanau who've already bought books so their name lives on at our kura!
Plenty more to come but this is already a very long post haha. Take care and we hope to see everyone back at school in the next couple of days. Miss Marie ... See MoreSee Less
