What's on?
ALF
ALF has now been verified, so anyone not able to access it this year or the end of last year, will now be able to.
To login as a parent, just go to alf.amesbury.school.nz and log in with your gmail account. You can then select your children.
If you already have a Gmail address with our school records, you will automatically be connected in ALF with your children. If you have a Gmail address that you would like to use just to access ALF, please email Lisa (lisa@amesbury.school.nz) with your email address and your child/rens names.

Tots to Teens Magazine
The link to the new March issue digital magazine is available here issue1902w.totstoteens.co.nz/.
In this issue, there are great sanity-saving hacks for parents coping with kids back at school, including four ways to save money (and stress!), supporting parents of our new entrants, and eight reasons for kids to consider martial arts as an after-school activity. There are three delicious ways to include "wonder food" turmeric in your everyday family meals, five top tips for busy and tired mums, and help when you're thinking, "Uh-oh... What's my kid looking at online?" (a scary prospect now that our kids spend so much time on YouTube). Check out the amazing Rotorua story and make sure you enter the special competition to win a 4-day action-packed vacay to this great destination. Also, the issue is investigating why good old-fashioned nursery rhymes never go out of style, and why they may be integral to children's emotional and cognitive development.
