Student Invoices
Could all parents please check the "Student Invoices" section of the online shop to check if you have any outstanding invoices that need to be paid? https://shop.tgcl.co.nz/.
Unfortunately, our system currently doesn't send you out a notification when a new invoice is added.
Spare balls of wool for our electives?
One of the elective groups is going to be making gorgeous soft toys with pom-poms for an elective this term.
If you perhaps have any odd balls of wool, or wool you won't be using any longer, just lying around the house, could you please send it to school. It would be great if we have a large variety of colours for kids to choose from.
There will be a container in the library where the wool can be dropped off.
Nicholas Jermyn (NZ shirtmakers)
The Board has agreed a sponsorship partnership with Nicholas Jermyn (NZ shirtmakers) where parents get a discount using a code, and the school gets a cut of any sales using the code: amesbury 15.
Spare clothes in school bags
Please pack a spare set of short/pants/leggings and underpants in the school bag (for all ages) with a plastic bag to put the wet clothes in, and let your child know that they are there for them.
For some children it can be quite upsetting when they unexpectedly become wet or dirty (particularly if there isn't anything for them to change into) or they don't like what is available. We have limited space to hold a small selection of spares but are not always able to cater for all sizes and 'requests'.
Lost Property
