Paid Union Meeting - Thursday 21 March
On Thursday 21 March, the majority of our teaching staff will be attending a Paid Union Meeting here at CMS from 1.30pm.
School will finish at 12.00pm on Thursday 21 March and students will be released then.
Please note: Buses will still run at the normal time of 3.00pm. Any student who needs to get the bus home, must go to supervision.
Supervision will be available that afternoon until 3.00pm if you are unable to pick your child up at the earlier time. If your child requires supervision, please fill in this google form https://forms.gle/8rgz6N92c9J7kDXX7
Parent/Teacher Conferences - Thursday 28 March
As our teachers will be in conferences throughout the day we ask that students do not come to school on this day. During this day students are only required at school if they are attending their Parent/Teacher Conference with their whānau or if they are attending the production rehearsal from 9am - 3pm in the hall.
We use an online booking system for our Parent/Teacher Conferences. Please go to https://www.schoolinterviews.co.nz/code/csqjt. Please phone the school office on 07 827 5135 if you require assistance.
