Dear Parents, Tēnā koutou The excitement of being TV stars and celebrities has died down and we’ve been getting on with good solid learning this week. We were very excited to have Kanye arrive and enrol yester-day. But unfortunately his family is moving again so today is his last day. All the best at your next new school Kanye! Many thanks to Helen Boleyn who brought along some seeds which we are germinating. We have been amazed at how quickly the seeds swelled and have started to sprout. Hope-fully they’ll be in the garden and growing us some food very soon. Today we journeyed out of school to join with Linton Camp School’s junior classes for singing. This will be a regular Fri-day morning opportunity to be part of a larger group of chil-dren. Board of Trustees meeting: The board meets at school on Wednesday night 15

th February at 6:30pm. Anyone interested

is welcome to attend as an observer. Please contact our chairman, Graham Irvine, if you have a particular item that you are interested in. irvinefamily@inspire.net.nz Kind Regards Gail Dobbin Relieving Principal Linton Country School
