Day One & School Picnic 2018

31/1/2018

 
Kia ora School Community

It was such a pleasure seeing everyone back yesterday.  I spent a lot of time in all of the different classes and will continue to do so for a while as we all settle in.  We talked in assembly about two particular concepts, firstly the teaching from Jesus himself regarding sparrows.  We looked at a close-up of a feather and discussed its intricate design and beauty.  His care for a sparrow is an example of how His care for us is huge and we need not worry, a good reminder for the first day.
​
Secondly, the concept of looking outside ourselves to the needs of others.  I presented two pieces of advice, one from the internet and one from the Bible.  The students could identify the scriptural truth straight away.  Doing things God's way will make RVS a great place to be because His way is always best..

​We were planning on having our School Picnic / Open Evening tomorrow, (Thursday) evening but have decided to postpone due to expected rain.  We will now be having our School Picnic / Open Evening next Thursday, the 8th of February from 5:30 - 7pm.  More information from the RVS Foundation regarding this will follow shortly.  

I would like to invite anyone, particularly new parents, to join me in the RVS staff room tomorrow at 2:15-3pm for a casual Q&A and information meeting.  There is always so much to know when starting a new school and we want our community to have the opportunity to 
hear about how RVS works and have a chance to ask questions.

I look forward to the rest of Week One and hope you enjoy your extended Waitangi Weekend.  
God bless,

Dave Pauling - Principal
