Principal’s Comment

Nga mihi nui ki koutou,

It's hard to believe but it's that time of the year again - the beginning of a new school year. Welcome back! And while you, the parents, may not be members of our teaching staff, you are a vital element to your child’s education.

We want your child to receive the best possible education, hence the importance for you and our dedicated teachers to work together as a team. It's teachers' ability to effectively teach what students need to learn, combined with parents' enthusiasm, support and involvement, that inspire children to do their best. Together we can achieve wonderful things.

There are exciting times ahead of us, including new teachers to meet, new friendships to forge or old friends to reconnect with, and new skills and knowledge to master. We look forward to sharing these exciting times with you.

I urge you to seize the moment to fully embrace the opportunities that we offer, to take the time from your busy schedules to become familiar with our school expectations, vision and values, and to provide a learning-friendly home environment that will allow your sons and daughters to excel.

Thank you for your valuable support.

Arohanui,

Margaret Paiti
