General Information

Newsletters - The school newsletter is distributed every fortnight via email, the Skool Loop app and our website.

 

Absences - If your child is away from school, please let us know via the HERO app or by calling the school office before 9:00 am. 

 

Lost Property is collected each day and held in the office area. At the end of each term, unclaimed items are donated to local clothing bins.

 

Hot Lunches - students can bring food that they would like to be warmed for their lunch. They will need to bring the item, foil-wrapped and named, and place it in their classroom hot lunch containers each day. 

 

Library - We have an excellent library that our students visit with their classroom and can access at lunchtime. 

 

Sports - We have lots of students who play sport, and we encourage all students to participate in a sport team when possible. Hockey is run through the school, with games at Clareville in Terms 2 and 3, as well as Miniball (Year 5-6) and Basketball (Year 7-8). Netball, Rugby and Rippa Rugby is run through local clubs, with most of our students playing for Tuhirangi. 

 

Buses - There are two school buses that are provided by the Ministry of Education for students to get to and from school. Please contact Liz in our office for information about the bus route.
