Chocolate Specials
Thanks to everyone who donated items for the Fair (tombola stall) on the last day of Term 1.
There were a few blocks of chocolate etc that have an expiry date before our fair in
November. We will be selling these (1 item per child):
• $2 a block of chocolate/bag of lollies or
• $5 for a box of chocolates/box of biscuits.
These are on sale at the office but please bring the correct cash as we don’t have the facility to give
change.

2021 Term 2 Road Patrollers – Thank You for the Important Job You Do!
Thank you to all these students who have
volunteered their time to help keep all our St
Brigid's School tamariki safe when coming and
leaving school.
We ask that parents help their child by ensuring
that everyone uses the designated crossing
areas as this will send a positive road safety
message.
We also thank all the parents and teachers who
give up their time to stand out on the road to support our road patrollers in rain, hail and shine!
Road Patrol Parent Helpers Needed
The roads around school just keep getting busier and we really want to keep our students safe as they
arrive and leave school each day. Our student road patrollers do a fantastic job and give their time
willingly, but they have to be supervised by an adult while on road patrol duty.
We operate 2 road patrols each morning from 8:40-9:00am (Phillip Street and Frankmoore Ave) and 3 in
the afternoon from 2:55-3:15pm (Phillip St, Frankmoore Ave and Dr Taylor Tce).
Can you help?
We would love to hear from any parents who are able to volunteer 20 minutes for one morning or
afternoon each week for the rest of the term to go on a roster to help with road patrol supervision.
If you can help, we would very much appreciate it. Please email Amanda Prowse on
amanda@stbrigids.school.nz if you would like to find out more or are able to help us out. Thanks
heaps!

Year 5-8 Netball - A message from Northern Suburbs Netball
Due to the high level of uncertainty around the Newlands College courts being available
this coming weekend, the NSN executive committee has made the decision to put a new
draw in place for Saturday 15 May. This will allow our season to kick off without any
further delays. The new draw will be released on Tuesday to give teams the chance to
organise themselves given that the draw looks quite different to usual.
A couple of things to note:
1. All games are being played at Newlands Intermediate, starting at 8:30am with the last round
finishing around 3:45pm
2. Games have been shortened by 10 minutes to fit all games on one day. Primary games will consist
of 4x6 minute quarters, and Intermediate games of 4x8 minute quarters.
We appreciate your understanding with the changing circumstances. Our draw committee has been
working hard over the weekend (and Mother’s Day) to get something in place that will allow our young
netballers to play on Saturday.
