Good Afternoon CTK Community

The Government’s announcement on Wednesday might have left you a little let down due to the lack of information for primary aged students. I know we are all COVID weary and want life to get back to normal as soon as possible.

There is another education announcement next week and I will look to keep you informed of any developments as information comes to light.

Below is some information:

Labour Day – Monday 25th October

There will be NO online sessions for students on Monday 25th October due to it being a Public Holiday.

Home Learning Packs

These will be avaiable at the school office Tuesday 26th October to Friday 29th October from 10am to 2pm each day.

Please come to the school office and knock on the door.

Returning Back To School

Our school will be open for essential workers’ children only until further notice.

If your child needs to return to school you will need to inform Mr Hadnett in advance. Please remember that this is not school as normal.

Art House Point Challenge

Our first challenge for house points this term is for our students to create an A4 picture of a New Zealand Native Bird.

A picture of your artwork is due to Mr Hadnett on Friday 29th October.

Each entry receives 50 house points and the top 3 artworks will be made into our new CTK cards.

Friends of CTK Raffle

Due to the continuation of our current lockdown we have had to once again postpone our raffle date.

This is due to regulations set by the lotteries commission.

We are currently collecting money and ticket stubs at the office when you pick up your home learning packs.

Congratulations Mr Lelo

During our last holiday’s Mr Lelo got married. We congratulate him on this huge achievement.

If you need any help or have any questions please contact Mr Hadnett on principal@ctk.school.nz

Online Testing

As we are currently working online for an unknown amount of time, we are being proactive and our teachers will start some Reading and Maths testing via Zoom.

Our teachers will have the guidelines for how this will happen and will explain to the students when they have their one to one sessions.
