PTA AGM Meeting – Wednesday 14 December
YMCA HOLIDAY PROGRAMME
Summer is on the way and the YMCA Tauranga team is ready for the school holidays with an awesome summer holiday programme based at Gate Pa School with a van service from Welcome Bay Hall and Otumoetai Intermediate.
There’s plenty to keep the kids busy over the long summer holidays with days learning gymnastics, skateboarding, hip hop, and circus skills, as well as themed centre days, summer games, swimming, crafts, and trips.
Contact 579 6530 or go to www.ymcatauranga.org.nz for more information.
Online Holiday Program | Four weeks of fun!

Tauranga City Library
Read books, win prizes! Tauranga City Libraries are running a free, fun summer reading programme called “Sail into Summer Reading”. Children aged 5 to 10 years read library books, tell library staff about their reading and receive incentive prizes and stickers. It’s a great way to encourage reading over summer (and helps keep up reading levels).
For kids starting Intermediate in 2017 there is Teen Mean Reads, where young people read and write reviews of library books and earn free books to keep. Enrolment for both programmes
starts Friday 9th December at all Tauranga City Libraries. Numbers are limited. Phone 577 7220 for information.
