Monsters Inc at CBS
Spot the monsters - with thanks to Room 1 and an interloper.
Thanks to the transforming nature of
professional make up artist
extraordinaire, (Leisa), Mike from
Monsters Inc made an appearance at
school on Friday. This was thanks to
the generosity of our community
raising over $20,000 by way of the
Mathathon earlier in the term. A great
day with plenty of laughter and,
hopefully, not too many frights.
Not Self But Service - Operation Christmas Child
The next opportunity for students to help others in need is called
Operation Christmas Child. This is run by an organisation called Samaritans
Purse. You can find more information at their website:
https://www.samaritanspurse.org.au/operation-christmas-child/.
The idea is that we fill a box (about a shoe box size) with gifts that a less
fortunate child will enjoy for Christmas. Each class will link their boxes to a
specific age group and will set about filling the box with small gifts (new). Gifts
can include - clothing, soft toys, bangles, handbags, necklaces, something for
school - pencils, pens, erasers; toys - skipping ropes, yo-yo, finger puppets;
something for hygiene - soap, face wash, toothbrush, moisturizer, hair clips
etc. Please note that the following items cannot be included - things that melt or
may leak, food of any kind, used or damaged items, anything breakable, toy
weapons, toy money or anything related to gambling.
Each class will do one box for a boy and one for a girl. If you are unable to
donate items then perhaps you can donate a few coins to help pay for the
postage of the boxes (each box costs $9 to cover postage).
We are hoping to do at least 150 boxes. There are some spare boxes available
if your family would like to complete one themselves.
Thank you for your on-going support in helping others in times of need.
Any questions please contact Julie Bose ([email protected] )
Not Self But Service - Canteen
Members of the CBS Student Council are helping to raise money for Canteen
this term and we need your help! Canteen is a charity who help to ensure that
no young person aged 12-24 goes through cancer alone, be it patients, their
siblings or other family members.
We will have mascots and ‘bandanna-sellers’ coming around the classes
throughout weeks 9 and 10 to sell awesome bandannas for $4 each. We will
also be having a gold-coin-donation mufti day on the last day of term, Friday 25
September. Be sure to also wear your bandanna on the mufti day, if you have
bought one during weeks 9 and 10! All funds raised will go direct to Canteen
and the great work that they do to ensure that cancer patients and families are
never alone, so please help us to help them!
Thank you so much from the Student Council, Miss Swan and Mrs Richardson
2016
Planning is well underway for the
2016 school year. Currently we
are seeking feedback from
parents to help us
make placements for children
who are already at school. To
assist us to accurately
understand our staffing needs for
next year it would be very helpful
if parents with children starting
school in 2016 completed the
enrolment process now.
While we have estimates of the
number of new entrants starting
school in 2016, having actual
confirmed enrolments provides
us with much more confidence
when it comes to planning.
Enrolment packs are available
from the school office. They can
also be posted to you if you
contact:
[email protected]
Thank you for your help.

MINIBALL
We may be able to enter a fourth miniball team into the Junior Breakers team for Term 4. If your Year 1 or 2 child is
interested in playing miniball in Term 4 please contact the Sports Coordinator. This league is about giving kids the
opportunity to get as much ‘hands on’ time as possible so they play 4v4. Games are in 45 minute slots which includes a
warm up that encourages the kids to work on fundamental skills, along with some basic rules of their league. Games are
then played as two 15 minute halves. Games are played on Monday afternoons at the Breakers training venue off
Constellation Drive.

CROSS COUNTRY
Last Tuesday our inter-school cross country team headed to Sunnynook Park to compete against four other schools in
our annual cluster event. Each school entered 24 competitors with 6 in each race. Several of our Year 5 girl runners were
upset to miss the race after falling ill the day before. However a last minute hunt for some courageous and willing
reserves meant we were able to attend with a complete team. After a few anxieties at the start line everyone ran their very
best especially:
Luke Old - 1st Year 6 Boys
Cam Maunder - 2nd Year 5 Boys
Lucy Leith - 3rd Year 6 Girls
An outstanding performance by these runners! The placings of all runners contributed to an overall score for each school.
This year the trophy was won by Mairangi Bay and Campbells Bay were placed second. Thank you to everyone who
cheered on our team and for those parents who helped prepare the children at our practice session. Lastly thank you to
the team reserves who remained on stand-by in case they were needed.
The Year 3 CBS Firebirds came 2nd in grade C this season at Kidzplay.

Next FOCB meeting is Thursday 17 September at 7.30pm in the staffroom.
On the agenda will be a discussion about an end of year carnival/family
evening- possibly linked to the end of year concerts. If you have an opinion on
this and or are able to help organise it, please come along to the meeting.
These events require a substantial amount of organisation, but are well worth it
as the children and community enjoy them very much. It requires a group of
people to make this happen - not just one or two.
Look forward to seeing you there!
This is advance notice on a Ladies’ Movie Night.
The Dressmaker, starring Kate Winslet - a story of
love, revenge and haute couture. Mark your
calendars now and gather your girlfriends:
22 October 8.00pm, Hoyts in Takapuna.
Set in the fictional country town of Dungatar,
Australia, it is the story of Paris couturier Tilly
Dunnage, who returns home to visit her mad old
mother and the town that expelled her as a child.
She ends up staying, creating fabulous frocks for
the ladies of Dungatar and skillfully disguising their
‘flaws’ – in Rosalie’s words: “ship-sized hips, ski-run
shoulders, watermelon bosoms, (and) mantle piece bottoms”. However, in the
process, the characters reveal their true flaws of jealousy, envy, pride,
pretentious ambition and rivalry allowing Tilly to exact her sweet revenge in a
thrilling climatic ending.
CBS a Winner
Hi! I’m Jaelynn and I won our school $5000 worth of technology by making a
video about my most memorable moment with my teacher. When I found out
that I had won the $5000 worth of technology I felt really happy and proud of
myself, because I knew that the devices would help my classmates. Sometimes
there aren’t enough devices for everyone and then people can’t use them for
their learning, but now there will be enough devices for everyone! I am so
happy! I want to thank all the people who voted for me and I want to thank my
mum and dad, because my mum and dad used social media to tell people
about my video. This actually links to our inquiry- we have been learning how to
use technology to connect with others in a positive way. My video helped
people connect in a positive way. Mrs Lanning met with Mary from Cyclone
Computers in week 8 to talk about the $5000 we have to spend. We ended up
spending the money on 12 HP chrome books. We can’t wait to use our new
devices to connect and learn. Thank you SO MUCH to the University of
Auckland and their #MyTeacherMoment campaign for running such an inspiring
competition with such an amazing prize that will enrich our learning!
Jaelynn Kim, Year 5, Mrs Richardson’s class.
