Mōrena whānau, The draw on Monday will be from the children with at least 1 donation no matter how small. We currently have 270 children signed up to the fundraising website and 186 of them have money donated. It would be great to get all 270 in the draw for the prizes on Monday and maybe some other children signed up too. You can check out the website with you class to see where you and your team are sitting on the leaderboard. https://selwynridgecolourrun.raiseit.co.nz/totals

Dear whānau, parents & caregivers, We know our students are amazing, so we’re giving them the opportunity to showcase and celebrate their talents in the world-renowned ICAS competition this year. What is ICAS? ICAS is an online academic competition that gives students the opportunity to challenge their higher order thinking and problem-solving skills in English, Mathematics, Science, Writing, Spelling Bee, and Digital Technologies. Every student who participates is celebrated and recognised with a printed certificate in each subject area, and an online results report to track development each year. Top performers are eligible for one of the highly coveted ICAS medals. To learn more about this year’s exciting ICAS competition, visit: icasassessments.com/icas
