Our Motto

Tena koutou katoa e te Whānau,

Updates for the this week:

Week 11

Monday to Wednesday our bus run will still be operating as per usual, however, the only difference is Whaea Poizhon will be using the little bus to do her run and Whaea Lucy will be utilising a van to do picks for the Otahuhu/Papatoetoe/Middlemore/Mangere run. Whaea Emma will continue with her bus. On Thursday there will be NO BUS run for the whole kura. The buses and vans will be utilised to take some of our tamariki down to Tauranga to support our Wharekura team. Please whanau, if you could just help us out for this one day to transport your tamariki to school, this is much appreciated. Friday will be a normal day with buses and vans.

Friday 3rd July will be our last day of Kura for the term and we will be on Term 2 school holidays. We will finish at normal time, 3.00pm.

First week of the holidays, some of our Kaiako and Wharekura students will be travelling to Tahiti for 10 days. They leave on the 7th July and return on the 15th. We wish them all the best on their travels as they learn about the history and the connection to us te iwi Maori. They will be visiting the following islands, Papeetee, Moorea, Raiatea, Ta'aha and Huahine.

School will return on the 20th July. The kaupapa for Term 3 is Te Marama. the tamariki will learn about the phases of the moon, when to grow crops and what are the good days for fishing. 

No reira e te whanau, please make sure that you put these dates into your calendar so that you do not forget. We will keep up dating as these days get nearer.

Tēnā koutou e te whānau,

Ka tīmata anō ngā Paraire Mufti i tēnei Paraire, ā, ka haere tonu mō te toenga o te wāhanga.  Mufti Fridays start again this Friday and will continue for the rest of the term.

The cost is $2 per child or $5 for whānau with 3 or more tamariki.

Hei tēnei Paraire hoki ka whakanui tō tātou kura i te Rā Hāte Māwhero (Pink Shirt Day). Ka akiaki mātou i ngā tamariki me te whānau whānui o te Kura kia mau kākahu māwhero mai hei whakaatu i te manaakitanga, te aroha, me te tū kotahi ki te whakahē i te whakawetiweti. 

This Friday we will also be celebrating Pink Shirt Day. We encourage all tamariki and whānau to wear something pink to show kindness, inclusion, and support for standing together against bullying.
