Welcome to Wakefield School

Dear Parents/Caregivers,


A number of projects are nearing completion around the school:


Massage in Schools:

Parents will be well aware that Wakefield School has joined hundreds of schools worldwide in introducing the Massage in Schools programme to most classes.  This is a new programme to New Zealand, but is used widely in the United Kingdom, United States
of America, Sweden, Canada and Australia.  Many of these schools report that:

Some comments from other teachers include:
“At the end of six weeks the children in this class played better with each other than before and left nobody out.”
“Children are more willing to sit next to each other. They relate better to each other.”

So against this background of information, Wakefield school’s participating teachers will monitor their students over the coming weeks to evaluate the effect of this programme.


PTA Quiz Night:

The fabulous PTA group is preparing for the third annual quiz night. Those that have attended in the past will know what a fun evening this event is.  So please gather five other people and register your team while tables are still available.  Check out the list of fantastic sponsors for this event on our website.  I look forward to meeting you all there.


Kind Regards
Peter Ross
Principal
