Dear Parents

My name is Sarah Blackford, and I am teaching in Room 9 for all of 2009. I grew up in Queenstown and went away to study at Canterbury then Otago, and I am very happy to be back in Queenstown! We have a busy start to the year with Outdoor Education Week which is a highlight for the children. Room 9 will also be having a free swimming session on Thursday the 12th of February so please remember to pack the children’s swim gear.

I look forward to meeting you and getting to know the twenty new members of Room 9. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to pop in to have a quick chat or to make an appointment.


Just a few points of information:
There will shortly be a Room 9 blog up and running. You can view this at
