Reports will be shared via Seesaw on Friday 6th December.

As a school, we have the responsibility to report to you as whānau in the areas of Literacy and Mathematics which we will continue to do as well as celebrating our special, rich and broad curriculum. This is something that we are immensely proud of here at our kura and want this to be reflected in your child’s school report.

We believe that involving children in reporting leads to more successful outcomes for our learners.

“For the focus to be kept on the learning, and the ownership of learning with the child, then the best person to talk about the learning is the learner.” Michael Absolum, Clarity in the Classroom (2006).

This is how your child’s report will look at the end of 2024:

Senior School (Year 3-6)

This term the children will be taking an active role in their school reports. The format is very similar to the mid-year reports with a few new additions. The children will be reflecting on their goals from mid year and making comments about their learning.

The children were able to articulate who they were as a learner and their strengths and goals. This was a great way to empower our tamariki!

There will still be a strong teacher presence in the reports with our comments and achievement progress.

These reports will be uploaded onto Seesaw like mid-year as this is a great way to save and track your child's learning journey as well as being sent to you via email in a PDF format.

Junior School (Year 0-2)

We will have the same reporting format as last year. Our reports include student voice keeping in mind that the Junior children are only 5, 6 and 7. The children will be reflecting on their goals from mid year in terms of Literacy and Maths. They will make comments about their progress in these learning areas, share some things they enjoy about school and reflect on how they demonstrate our school values. There will be strong teacher presence in the reports with our comments and achievement progress indicators.

These reports will be uploaded onto Seesaw like mid-year reports and we encourage you to make a comment on your child’s report via Seesaw. 

You will also notice that we have added your child’s attendance rate on their report. Attending school every day is essential for learning. There is a well-established relationship between attendance and achievement. Research indicates that every day of school matters. It means your child can:

• Make progress in reading, writing, maths, and other skills

• Feel confident in the classroom

• Make friends and build social skills

• Build good habits for life

We would love it if you added a comment to your child on Seesaw about their report. This feedback from you to them is really valuable as it helps to reinforce an effective learning focused partnership between school, student and home.

We will include your child's class for 2025 on their report.  

Our school structure for 2025 will be the same as this year with 2 Year 5 and 6 classes and 2 Year 3 and 4 classes in the Senior School and 2 classes initially in our Junior School.
