Thank you cards from Hive kids to front line workers

HIVE’S 2021 NEWSLETTERS!

After a slow start to the year, our fortnightly newsletters are back. We’re super happy this year to have the most ever Kindys joining the Hive - about 75% of the whole year, which is awesome. WELCOME!!

Thank you to all the parents doing a great job of notifying us of absences - gold 🌟to you! This keeps worry levels down in The Hive, and helps you avoid the non-notification penalty fee…

🦠 🦠 COVID 😷 😷

Whilst Covid restrictions are still in effect, we all have to do our bit. PARENTS please remember:

use hand sanitiser inside gate/by iPad
sign in/out on iPad, remain outside Hive room, make eye contact with staff inside
Children cannot be dropped off at the gate - you must bring them to the Hive room
leave school ASAP after drop off/pick up - this is a school requirement
always maintain social distancing - use of a mask is welcomed

✅ ✅ SIGN-OUT PROCESS 👏🏽 👏🏽

For each child, every session, parents must sign in/out on the iPad:

log in using your ID and password
click ‘IN’/‘OUT’ for all relevant children (button turns green/red respectively)
click ‘DONE’
The screen will revert to the log-in window for the next person
if the process doesn’t work properly please alert a staff member at the time

🏖️ HOLIDAY PROGRAM 🏖️

HP will open for bookings in WEEK 7. Our growing numbers (yay!) mean we can once again offer a split program on some days. Due to the spread of ages within the Hive, we’re splitting slightly younger this time:

LITTLE BEES - YK & Y1 (optional)

BIG BEES - Y1 (optional) & Y2-6

essentially, the Y1s can choose which program they’d like to attend

WHEELS DAY on TUESDAY…

As Tuesday’s guided SKATE NOW lesson can only take 15 kids each, on weekly rotation, we’ve decided to expand, running our own WHEELS DAY session alongside. Children can bring their own wheels to school (skateboards, skates, scooters, bikes). This means every gets a go, even if they’re not in the lesson. The children doing the Skate Now lesson must have a signed waiver. Children joining the Hive’s Wheels day do not need one. It’s important that all children follow the rules, so that we continue to be allowed to run these sessions. Your support as parents is invaluable

wheels must be stored in correct designated areas of school during the day. Bike racks for all BIKES and SCOOTERS
HELMETS are compulsory - no helmet, no play
wheels can only be used during the designated Hive activity and must not be ridden during the school day
