ABSENCES


If your child is absent from school for any reason including being late, please notify us either with a phone call or by our School App.


It is most important that parents and staff know of children’s whereabouts at all times.  Each morning and afternoon the roll is taken and absences noted.  If a child is absent without explanation the school will endeavour to contact caregivers to ensure child safety.

Are you able to help?

Fri Mar 25 08:42am

Kia Ora whanau,


This is a bit of an unusual request, 


What we KNOW is that the ceiling, in three spots, in our Room 5 classroom has sprung a leak.
What we WOULD LIKE is for ‘someone’: a builder or roofer by trade to come in and give us some advice about what we need to do moving forward.
What we have also LEARNED is that with the right advice we can get this problem fixed.
If you are able to assist, please contact either Sarah Jackson in the office or myself.


Kia pai tō rā

Seesaw

Seesaw is a platform for student engagement that inspires students of all ages to do their best, and saves teachers time! Students use creative tools to take pictures, draw, record videos and more to capture learning in a portfolio. Teachers find or create activities to share with students.The Seesaw platform is used for homework activities as well as in class work.

Parents are also notified by the class teacher about classroom and school activities and events via the Seesaw platform. Parents can also Seesaw their child’s teacher.

Families only have access to their child’s journal. This means you will see student work tagged with your child’s name and posts the teacher tags with ‘Everyone’. Families will also be able to see any comment made by another user on their child’s journal posts.
