Kia ora whānau,

As part of our regular water quality testing for the school pool, a routine sample identified the presence of a common environmental water bacteria.

While this type of bacteria is commonly found in natural water environments and usually poses low risk to healthy individuals, we take the health and safety of our students very seriously. As a precaution, the pool will be temporarily closed while we carry out a full treatment and cleaning process.

This includes:

shock chlorination

deep cleaning of all surfaces

filter system servicing

follow-up water testing

The pool will reopen once testing confirms the water meets all Ministry of Health safety standards.

We appreciate your understanding while we complete this process and ensure the pool remains safe and hygienic for all tamariki.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the school office.

Ngā mihi,
Sam Gibbens

Kia Ora,  

This is a reminder that Waitangi Day is tomorrow; therefore, the school will be closed.  

Enjoy the long weekend.  

Nga Mihi Nui.

Kia ora whānau,

Just a friendly reminder that if you would like to meet with a staff member or the Principal, please email ahead to arrange a suitable time.

Our staff are teaching, supervising students, and preparing lessons throughout the day, so scheduling an appointment ensures we can give you the time and attention your questions or concerns deserve. This is especially important when the Principal is teaching in class.

At times, staff or the Principal may also be off-site or away for the day, so arranging a meeting beforehand helps avoid any inconvenience.

Please contact the school office or email directly to book a time that works for everyone.
