Class in progress

Thanks to Mr Mansfield for these great photos of the construction of the new classrooms

Up went the walls...

On went the roof and cutting the windows

In went the window frames

Making the veranda, putting on the doors

All nicely carpeted and painted

Ceilings in and lights fitted

And then the pupils moved in, decorated and now class is in session

Here too is a photo of the budding musicians learning the marimba (or xylophone)

We're expanding

You might have realised that we are being pushed for classroom space... well we are expanding.  Construction has started on 3 new classrooms... even in amongst all the rain we've had.

We will definitely keep you up to date on the progress.

Kitchen upgrade

Have you seen the smart new kitchen.... wow the PTA really has gone all out and given the teachers and staff a fantastic kitchen now. It's all done and fully functional.

Did you notice all the little touches? Tea, coffee, sugar pots, green dishtowels, the microwave, a place for the photocopier plus a work surface to sort stuff out on, baskets to put goodies into, cupboards full of glasses and mugs, little green plants here and there. Such nice springy feeling.

Photos

The plan is to put photos up on our blog to show the pupils and parents what is happening at school. We will aim to put them up as soon after the event as possible.... but here are a few that we've just received....

The School Inter-House Gala held in January:

The different houses plus the Grade 0s

Taking the plunge, the announcers and timekeepers, plus the mascot & trophies

The Grade 0s had their picnic a few weeks back, on a balmy Friday night... From these snapshots it looks like it was a HUGE success... enjoyed by all.

You may have noticed a bit of banging and noise coming from behind the office lately.... well it's all to do with the new kitchen for the staff.... yes it's being upgraded! Here is the start of the process:
So bear with us, and support the teachers trying to find that much deserved cuppa at breaktime, as the new kitchen gets installed. Please remember to use the front door to enter the office now... the work area is out of bounds!

Also, if you have ANY photos of ANY school event that you think will interest the pupils and parents, please email them to northwestchristianschool {@} gmail {dot} com.
