Dear Parents / Caregivers
PARENT INTERVIEWS AND REPORT AFTERNOON / EVENINGS – Tuesday 5th and
Wednesday 6th July
Parent Interview information will be given out today to students where there
are two or more from the same family attending Tokoroa Intermediate School. This is to enable interviews to be co-ordinated so that parents with
interviews with two teachers can have them timetabled close together. For
parents with two children at school, please make sure interview sheets are
returned tomorrow to enable this to happen. All other parents will receive
the Parent Interview Information tomorrow. A reminder, the sooner interview
sheets are returned to school, the more likely it is to get the time slot
requested.
School will finish at 2:30p.m. on Tuesday 5th and Wednesday 6th July to
enable teachers to be set up and be ready to start interviews at 3:00p.m.

Education Review Office ReportContinuing on from last weeks
newsletter are some other areas of “good performance in Reading”.
Professional Leadership: The Principal and members of the senior
management team are providing high quality professional leadership. A
strong team of senior teachers ably supports them. The role of the
literacy leader has been vital to the successful development and
implementation of the reading focus. As a result of this highly
effective team approach, teachers, support staff and students share a common
understanding of school-wide developments in reading.
Student Engagement: The expectations and routines set for learning
and behaviour by teachers are clearly understood by students and result in
positive student-teacher interactions. A high level of student
engagement in learning and focused on-task behaviour is contributing to
raising levels of achievement and participation school wide. Students
are enthusiastic about learning, enjoy being at school and are strongly
motivated to achieve success.
Library Information Centre: A well-equipped library information
centre supports the reading programme across the school. Students
benefit from a wide range of reading resources and access to computers for
knowledge and research purposes is fully utilised. This extensively
used facility is open and accessible to students within and out of school
hours. Recreational reading and research skills are being enhanced.
The latest ERO report is now available on the Education Review Office
website – www.ero.govt.nz

School SocialA reminder that our first school social of
the year is next Wednesday 29th June, 7:00p.m. to 9:30p.m. I
have included last week’s newsletter information in case some parents missed
it - The Social is by invitation only. Before children
can be considered for an invitation they need to make sure that all
outstanding fees have been paid (this does not include school fees).
If you owe money you will have received an account in the mail over the last
three weeks.
Several Important Reminders
- Invitation permission slips must be presented at the door, signed by a
parent / guardian.
- Pupils will need to be brought to and collected from the hall. This is a
condition of attending the Social. Students are not to arrange to meet
parents in Elizabeth Drive, Billah Street or the Matarawa Bus Bay. This is
for safety reasons.
- The Elizabeth Drive gate will be open before the Social and again at the
end of the Social.
- A tidy standard of dress is required.
- No hats, bandanas or beanies.
- Bags are discouraged.
- The Tuck Shop is open but large amounts of money are not to be brought.
- Security will be in attendance to support the staff.
- No pupils may leave the hall until dismissed by the teacher-in-charge.

Netball
Form 1A and Form 2A netball teams played exceptionally well at the Waikato
Intermediates Netball Tournament held yesterday in Tokoroa. Unfortunately
both teams missed the finals but the girls should feel proud of the high
level of skills they showed on the day. A big thank you to the players for
their excellent behaviour and to the six girls who came down to help with
the running of the tournament.
S.Potoru,
TIC Netball
I would like to thank Shenell Potoru, Jeannette Beale and Joyce Daniel for
their efforts in organising and running an excellent tournament.
