 * <span style="color: #0020ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Thursday **

With these types of reviews there is a period of breathing again so enjoy these next two days.

We have fixed the wiki issues It was all based around internet explorer. It has decided not to allow wiki spaces to talk to it so the answer has been to go CHROME Ed tech have deployed CHROME to all work stations and childrens stations.

When you re start any computer it will ask you for deployment and you just click yes. What you want is CHROME to be your default browser To get icon on your desktop right click on your desktop homepage and go to new then go up to short cuts and cut and paste the link I have just sent into there and it will give you the link on your home page. Also let CHROME bring across your contacts as well. It will ask you all this apparently.

Have fun and let me know if it doesn’t work which I am sure it wont! You can get to wiki spaces through chrome basically

 * Vicky**
 * Week 3**

She needs BTB awards emailed to Kelly at admin@stdominics.school.nz on the Thursday/Friday which is tomorrow so that they are ready to go for her first thing Monday. On the Monday she makes up the actual certs and pre prints the plaques that go on the wall.

Because some people are late she has been holding back and this has put everything into a spin. I have said to her that if the awards are not ready for her on Monday she runs with what she has got otherwise the system does not work. Use a reminder on your outlook this might help you

Can we all rememebr to bring something for shared lunch We will start at 9 and finish at 3pm

I would like to thank Melinda and Vicky C for offering to take on this role. It is important that the BOT rep reports back to the staff about what has been discussed and shared at BOT meetings which we will book into Monday admin meetings from now on after a meeting. Remember any staff member is able to attend BOT meetings. They are open for all however it’s just that visitors do not have speaking or voting rights.
 * Thursday**

It is important to note that I did not have a vote and that the online voting process and votes counted are available to be viewed by anyone who wishes. Voting was available to paid staff members including admin and teacher aides.

Vicky Coakley will now represent the staff at BOT level. <span style="font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; font-size: 15px;">Thanks you again Melinda for putting your hand up. Very much appreciated I have dropped into everyone’s cubby holes the list for **below expectations** I understand that you have already organised your groups etc for this term however it is good for you to have ahard copy attached to your planning Highlight and make notes all over them As teachers we need to make sure that we can account for what we are doing for these children.
 * Thursday**
 * Hope everything went well last night ( tonight if you are reading this now)**
 * Same message as what was emailed out.**

Please place into your class descriptions a separate column about the children in your class that are below so that you have a record of what you are doing for these ones.

Being year 1-2 it is just that haven’t has the time at school i understand however we need to keep track of these children and make sure that we are planning to move them.

I have broken the data up into teams so that everyone can share thoughts about everyone’s children Collective responsibility for our children.

Daniel

Welcome all Remember daily notices each day Please make sure that the children are in correct PE gear as they play sport. Children must have anote if they do not have correct gear. Soccer today Pizza for dinner.
 * Wednesday**

I am going to be promoting our fitness month with community to get them on baord.

I had 3 students from AIC come to see me today They want to run language/art and sport classes after school on Wednesdays starting 8th August They would run the hour sessions and are very keen. They would need 4 classrooms at this time to run the Art and Language classes Sports would be held out side Baseball Basket ball and Soccer
 * News form AIC**

I think it would be a great chance for our children Children would have to get parent permission and be picked up at 4 pm They would need to take a roll and children would need o know that they are there to learn and have fun and not be a pain. PArents would need to ake sure they were there at 4:00pm early.

Are their any teachers that would not mind their classes being used by the children after school. I dont know how many children we are talking about however be a great opportunity for the children. Please let me know if you would be happy with your classroom being used by hursday so that I can move on org of this. Thanks

Monday week 2
