Dear Parent / Caregiver,

A number of parents have (in the past) expressed interest in starting up netball teams for girls to represent our school.

We'd like to gauge current interest, and would like to hear from those of you who'd be keen to get involved.

The first step is to come along to an 'expression of interest' session to be held in the school's staffroom on Wednesday, 29th April at 3pm.

If you're not able to attend on the day, and is still keen to be involved, please don't hesitate to contact El-marie Sutherland-Clark on 020 4026 0338.

Kind regards,

The Waipa Christian School team

Dear Waipa Christian School Community,

We will be holding our Annual Garage Sale on Saturday 9th May, 9am-12pm. This is a major fundraiser for our school and it only works well when everyone is involved. We are asking for your support.

All families are to provide two lots of home baking, wrapped and labeled ready for sale (e.g. Chocolate muffins or Gluten free choc muffins, etc), to be dropped off at the school office on Friday 8th May.

We also have a google form link below that we would like you to indicate where you are able to help for the garage sale.
