Introductions!

[sar...@stonefields.school.nz]

It would be awesome if everyone could introduce themselves (sharing anything you like) and share the name of their son or daughter in the hub.  It's nice for us all to know who we're really talking to!

Use this thread (AKA discussion) to get a feel for how to post on the forum...  don't worry it you make a mistake, we're all learning.

Hi everyone - thanks to all of you who have had a go at posting.  It's awesome to see you all jumping in!  

We talk a lot about pushing our kids and what your'e doing is really role-modeling that, especially if you're not generally very confident on the computer.

Thanks for all the positivity about the forum - I've already heard about some of you using Sunshine Books at home based on what you read here, so don't be shy about posting... even if you don't get a comment back, your posts are being noticed and are valued  :)

[paula.jase]

Hi I am Paula Seymour, Tessa's mum. I would be keen to get a class list going so we could call and text for play dates etc. I am happy to sort out a list if people think it is useful. If you can email me your name address, phone and email and your childs name I will start one. I realise this could get quite big so also happy to start with Miss Jackson's guardian group. Emma's mum could you please e-mail me as Tessa tells me she has a play date tomorrow that I don't know about? For those that are keen my email address is paula...@gmail.com. Thanks Paula

[twvaealiki]

Hiya, I'm Tania Vaealiki, Dan's mum. I love the atmosphere the sch has provided for our children and especially the warm and inviting attitude the teachers have towards parents during learning times. Keep up the outstanding work Hub1:)

[Sarah Holland]

What a great idea! If you'd like, why don't I make a google doc that everyone can type straight into? That saves you from having to compile them all and will allow new parents to add their details easily.

Good thinking!

[paula.jase]

That sounds even better, thanks Sarah. You will just have to let us know how to use it!
Regards Paula

[Sarah Holland]

Here we go  :)  Click here for the post.  You can just follow the link and type directly into the doc - it will save automatically.

[Sarah Holland]

Thanks Tania, it's always lovely to hear that things we're trialling are working  :)  Thanks to you all for taking up the challenge and involving yourselves!
