Hello All,
The highlight of this week was the Dads lunch on Monday – great to see so many Dad’s, Grandads and Uncles come along to the school.
A big thanks to all those who came along – and the Student Leadership Team for making this event happen. The students enjoyed it and the staff always appreciate the chance to meet the fathers of our students and see them involved.
We’d like to encourage more dads/grandads and other interested persons to volunteer to do the occasional van run or driving for an excursion. This mostly falls on the mums but it is a great opportunity for us guys to spend a bit of time with our young people.
And I’m sure they’d appreciate us doing some of the van runs on the frosty mornings!
Also, just a reminder to anyone coming into the school; please remember to always sign in on arrival and sign out when you leave. This is very important for H&S, security - and potentially Covid tracing! The electronic sign-in system asks a bunch of questions the first time you use it but thereafter it will remember you and it will only take a few seconds to sign in.
Many thanks to all those who contribute to making OneSchool South the great organisation that it is!
Have a great weekend
Jay McGaveston on behalf of the CA Team
On Wednesday afternoon, all the Invercargill Campus students went on a PE run to practice for cross country. The run was at Kilmock bush track, and started at Fosbender Park in Otatara. The track was 2380m long, and the juniors completed one lap while the seniors did two or three laps. The juniors got to wear bright orange and yellow Hi-Vis vests so we could see them if they got lost.
We left school at 1:00pm after lunch and drove in the van to where we were going to run. After the run, the juniors played on the playground and the park and then we went home on the vans.
Global has confirmed that it is their intention that ties are only ‘required’ for formal school occasions. Some students choose to wear their tie daily and this is fine, but the wearing of school ties is not ‘compulsory’.
