Kia ora koutou. Hello everyone.
Food Bank Collection
St Mary by the Sea Anglican Church in Torbay runs an emergency community food bank for the local community. They are finding it increasingly difficult to have a sufficient supply to meet the requests they receive.
Glamorgan School would like to support them as they have helped our families in the past with food parcels and vouchers. Any in date canned, or dried food or store cupboard food item donations will be gratefully received. Could you please bring any donations in to the school office by 19th September.
Chickenpox
We currently have quite a number of children away from school with chickenpox which seems to be in the wider community and other local schools as well. Symptoms include fever and spots with a blister on the top of each spot. This is not a notifiable disease, but infected children must stay away from school until all the blisters have dried. This applies to all children whether they are vaccinated or not.
Lost property
We have a lot of lovely clothes in our lost property bin! If your child has lost property this term please check the box at the back of the hall. Any lost property left at the end of term will be donated to charity.
Road safety
Please use the crossing on Glamorgan Drive and be a positive role model for our children rather than crossing on the brow of the hill at the front of the school. This is so dangerous for children to be doing as cars cannot see them until it is too late, but they are following others including adults and so think it is ok.
