Whānau interviews with your child’s teacher will be held on Thursday 13 February from 1:15 pm - 8:00 pm.

We have run these interviews for several years and we have found them to be highly successful.  We want to hear from our families about their goals and aspirations for their children. These Whānau interviews provide an important opportunity for you to discuss how your child is settling into their new class. To talk about any identified learning needs, work habits, and personal developments that you may like to share.  It is also an opportunity to consider how you can further assist your child with their learning at home.   Click on the link for the letter that was sent home on Thursday.
