Kia ora Whanau/Caregivers,
What a busy term it has been! We are fast approaching the school break and noticing that many of our tamariki feel tired and some have been unwell. Thank you for keeping your child at home when they are not well, this helps to stop the transmission of bugs and illnesses.

Updating Contact Details
It is very important that we have the correct contact details for people who are listed as caregivers for all of our students. If you have moved house, changed your phone numbers or have different people who you would like to have as emergency contacts, please get in touch with the office and update us with the new details.
Obviously, if other details concerning your child have changed, e.g. medical issues, then we would also appreciate knowing about these.
