Waimarino – Next Friday 17th February

Welcome to 2012! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and found some time to enjoy the few summer days that we had.

On the Friday the 17th of February we will be spending the day at Waimarino Adventure Park.  As most of you would be aware Waimarino Adventure Park is located on the banks of the Wairoa River, Bethlehem Tauranga. They  provide a trained instructor to facilitate our full day programme.  Students will have the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of activities and get to experience the latest addition to park – the Blob! The activities encourage students to develop life skills, trust, cooperation, confidence and water safety.

To enable us to attend we need a minimum of 5 parents that are willing to actively supervise by getting into the kayaks and joining us on the water.  We will also require transport to and from the park.

The cost of the programme is $25 per student (adult helpers – free).  We will leave school at 9am and return by 2.50pm (Bus students WILL be back in time to catch the bus).

You will need:
Togs and towel
Sunhat
Sunscreen
Packed lunch – including plenty of water to drink and morning tea.
Wetsuit (if you have one)
Jersey or some warm clothing
Suitable footwear (jandals are ok)
Students are not to bring any money, cellphones, ipods or the like.

Please return the  forms given out last Friday along with payment of the $25 ASAP. I hope that you are able to join us and look forward to spending a fun day out with the kids!
