MĀLŌ E LELEI, KIA ORA, TALOFA LAVA, AND WELCOME

Welcome to Rayn and Siuta who started at the end of Term 3 and Keanna, Riley, Talia and Cobain and their whanau who joined our Kura this week. 

Welcome back to the new term.  We hope that everyone had a good break and managed to recharge for the term ahead.  We have another fun filled and busy term ahead with a wide variety of learning experiences planned for the children during the term.  As we focus on the learning needs of tamariki, we encourage parents/whanau to be actively involved in their learning and strengthen the home/school communication.  It is great to have good weather to start the term so we can all get outside in the fresh air.

We have an amazing school, and it takes everyone working together to create a culture where we can learn and grow individually and collectively.  This is not always an easy or straight forward process but with perseverance and keeping our KORAU values at the front of our thinking, we can help the tamariki be the best they can be.
