Term 4 2014

 

We look forward to welcoming our new entrants and their families and Ms Joanna Nelson (R16) and Mrs Katherine Wright (in R5 Week 1 and then in Kiwi and Kea Teams for the rest of the term)

 

The Building Programme

What a lot of progress has been made. Everything is pretty much up to schedule, with no major delays. There will be more trucks in and out of the property from now on, but these should be during early mornings; during the school day and later in the afternoons.

 

 

Pick Up, Drop Off and Parking

Thank you so much to everyone who has made a huge effort to help all the changes run smoothly!

There may be additional changes, but we will advise you, as needs be.

 

A brief reminder below for those who missed out on the information or who still have some confusions!

  • Rooms 7,8,9,10, 12,  13    children and their older siblings in Rooms 1-6, or younger siblings in Kiwi Team, St Joseph’s Centre, are dropped off and picked up in the hall car park. In fine weather, please use the new path on the Rosmini side of the hall, rather than the hall corridor.

 

  • Dominion Street Bus Children and all children who have older siblings at Rosmini meet at the top of the steps by the hall after school and are accompanied by a teacher to the buses or outside Rosmini (to wait for their Rosmini sibling) These children can then be picked up from outside Rosmini without the need for parents to come into the St Joseph’s Carpark
  • Kiwi Team parents can park in the top centre park and walk past the admin block through the garden to the driveway leading to the St Joseph’s Centre (and vice versa)
  • Room 16 (New Entrants) parents can park in the hall car park and walk the children to and from the classroom, either via the hall corridor or the outside path.
  • Rooms 1-6 children (who DO NOT have younger siblings at St Joseph’s, nor older siblings at Rosmini, are dropped off or picked up outside the administration block, using the DRIVE THROUGH. There should normally be no need to park, but if that’s required, please park in the top centre park NOT the church one, especially if you arrive after 8.30, as parishioners are arriving for Mass.
  • Taharoto Bus Children, Independent Walkers, Bikers and Scooter riders, Kumon attendees meet outside the staffroom on the far side near the Green.
  • There is NO VEHICLE access to the school at any time, for staff or parents, from Fred Thomas Drive. This access and parking is for the St Joseph’s Centre only. Please respect this.
  • St Joseph’s is no longer a thoroughfare for Rosmini boys or for Rosmini parents to park and pick up their sons. This arrangement has been decided on with full agreement and co-operation from Rosmini College.

 

Ka kite ano!  Have a great weekend. See you all on Monday!
