A reminder to parents and caregivers about the importance of students arriving at school on time each morning. The beginning of the school day is when teachers share key instructions, outline the day’s learning, and begin important teaching. When students arrive late, they can miss these instructions and it can be difficult for them to catch up with the class.

Being on time helps students feel settled, prepared for learning, and ready to make the most of the day. It also supports a positive start to the morning for both students and teachers.

We appreciate your support in helping ensure students arrive at school ready and on time for the start of the day.

Go Green for Mitey !!!

We’re proud to be supporting Mitey, which delivers mental health education for our ākonga, helping them understand emotions, build resilience, and thrive in their learning. Through this partnership, our school is contributing to meaningful, long-term change by equipping young people to care for their own mental wellbeing and that of others throughout their lives.

On Thursday 12 March, ākonga are invited to wear something green and bring a gold coin donation to help Mitey extend this vital work to schools across Aotearoa.    

Every contribution helps shape brighter futures for tamariki, supporting wellbeing now and into the teenage years. www.mitey.org.nz

Term 2 Update - Leadership News

We are pleased to share that I have been awarded a professional sabbatical for Term 2, 2026. This is a fantastic opportunity to undertake focused professional learning that will strengthen our school and support our ongoing growth.

During Term 2, our junior class teacher, Mrs Magda Jordan, will step into the Acting Principal role. This provides a great leadership opportunity while ensuring continuity and stability for our students and whānau.

To support this, we have advertised a part-time, fixed-term teaching position in the junior classroom for Term 2 only.

We look forward to sharing the learning from the sabbatical with our community in Term 3.

Ngā mihi for your continued support of our kura.

Mrs Tamae Dimond, Principal
