Nga mihi nui ki a koutou katoa – warm greetings to everyone
Whanau Engagement:
A very big thank you to whanau who came to our Meet and Greet open afternoon. We had a great time engaging with you and sharing what we do. The teachers enjoyed meeting you and putting faces to names. Please feel free to come in to school and discuss things with your child’s teacher anytime – don’t wait for another Meet and Greet!
Coming up at the end of the term is our SLC (Student Learning Celebration) on the 5th and 6th of July. This is an important opportunity for you to be involved in your child’s learning. Research shows that children who have parents and whanau interested in their progress at school will do better in their learning.Effective partnerships between schools and parents, whānau, and communities results in better outcomes for students. The better the relationship and engagement, the more positive the impact on students’ learning. What a responsibility you have to show your child that learning is important! You will meet with your child and their teacher to look at learning progress and learning goals. If there are things you wish to discuss with the teacher without your child present, this is not the time. Please make an appointment any time of the year if you have other concerns to discuss with the teacher without your child present.
