    Monday 9 December Kia ora whanau, What a week of mixed emotions this week is going to be.

    From everyone at school we send our heartfelt sympathy and condolences to Jean Mullens family and friends on the sad loss of Jean last week. Her passing will leave a huge hole in our school community Jean was such an integral part of what we have become and how we operate. We were blessed to have had such an amazing lady to work with; to teach our children and our staff so much; to laugh and giggle with; and to offer us advice and guidance. Jean will have touched so many Bluff families lives through her teaching and voluntary involvement in many Bluff organisations. Jean was a valued staff member at the Bluff schools she taught at and was well respected by her principal colleagues. Most of all, she truly loved our kids and enjoyed so much watching them succeed and grow. As a mark of respect our school flag is flying at halfmast. Arrangements for Jeans funeral tomorrow: Jeans funeral is at the marae at 11.00 tomorrow. There will be no school tomorrow for children in Kakapo and Weka. To show our respects, we will be singing Jean into and out of the wharenui. We would love as many children as possible from Kereru, Tui, Pukeko and Takahe to come to school at 10.00 tomorrow morning. We will dress them into their kapa haka gear (most of which Jean sewed for us) and walk them down to the marae. We will return to school to change them out of their gear at the conclusion of the service, and at this point, children are their parents responsibility. Please make arrangements for them to be collected or to walk home from school (approx. 12.00). as staff wish to be able to pay their respects to Jean and share time with her family. Classes for 2014: The class your child is in for 2014 and the stationery list will be sent home with their portfolio on Wednesday. A couple of classes are moving location next year Kakapo is going to the space that Tui is currently in. Kereru is going to the space that Kakapo is currently in. Tui is going to the space that Kereru is in. Heidi will be teaching Kakapo in 2014 and Kylie will be teaching Kereru. Ha what a way to cause confusion!! 2014 Class Kakapo Weka Kereru Tui Pukeko Takahe Teacher Heidi Johns Rachel Devery Kylie Lawson Tupou Salesa Jason Whyte Paddy Daintith Year Levels Years 0 - 1 Years 1 - 2 Years 2 - 3 Years 3 - 4 Years 5 - 6 Years 6 - 8

    As usual classes are determined strictly on childrens date of birth and class numbers. End of Year: The last day for students is Thursday the 12th December. We have our end of year BBQ and games night on Wednesday 11 December 5.30 6.30ish. It would be great to see everybody there!! We are hoping to have a water slide, photo booth, horizontal bungy, inflatable slide, lots of games, lolly scramble, and most of all LOTS OF FUN. Come along for a sausage, a few laughs, and a fun way to end the year together. We are also intending on planting a tree in memory of Jean during the evening. Hope to see you all there!!!! ! Alison
