This will be a time to ask questions, get ideas for learning at home and to discuss your child’s 2023 goals.  

We ask that all parents and caregivers take the time to make an appointment to meet with your child/children’s kaiako/teacher/s.

Healthy Eating/Celebrations

Many of our whanau like to celebrate their child/children’s birthday by bringing a birthday cake for the child’s class to share.  We are very happy for this but ask that it is only a cake.  Please do not send pizza, juice, goodie bags etc. Thank you for your support and understanding.
