Final Week Term 4 2012!!!

Well it's officially the end of the term here at Winton Kindergarten! The past nine weeks have just flown by with lots of things on keeping the children, families, and teachers on their toes!! As we wind down with our last days of the year we have to make a special mention to Kylie for all her hard work and wonderful contributions at Kindy...We are sad to have to say goodbye but know that Kylie has lots of exciting new beginnings for herself and her family in Wanaka. A friendly reminder that Wednesday and Thursday we are having a shared morning tea for Kylie and to celebrate a great year at Kindergarten with our children and families.

PARENTS/WHANAU: Please feel free to stay for the session...This is a nice way to celebrate your child's time at Kindy and to wind up the year - and of course we can always do with LOTS OF PARENT HELP FOR END OF YEAR CLEAN UP! (A big THANK YOU to all the wonderful parents we have had helping out this week with cleaning jobs).

Takehe naming competition: Thank you to everyone who added their name suggestions to the list...The Takehe is named Puiaki meaning treasure treasure.

We received a Thank-you card from St Johns for our donation from Amby's visit earlier in the term. Thank you to all those who remembered their gold coin. 

Thank you to all the kind families who donated pre-loved toys for our collection that Sally organised. Sally took these down to the local Salvation Army where the toys will be passed on to families this Christmas...A nice "Random Act of Kindness" to finish our  KINDNESS-FILLED year!

Just one of the baskets filled with goods for families in need this Christmas.

Ruby brings in her pre-loved teddies for children less fortunate...How Kind Ruby!
