Our Purpose: To prepare students to be active participants who will contribute to their community.

Wow... is all I can say. We are very humbled by the generosity of our families at O.I.S. Together we collected 881 items for the Oamaru Foodbank. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

On behalf of the students and staff at Oamaru Intermediate School, we would like to thank Network Waitaki for their generous donation of $6123 towards the cost of a new demonstration teaching unit for the Food Technology room. The sponsorship will enable all students at O.I.S and our partnership schools to benefit from the improved multi-space, clearer visual demonstrations, greater success in a practical food environment, and develop life skills. We are incredibly grateful for the support of Network Waitaki and wish them well as they celebrate 100 years within our community!

Here are some dates to remember of events happening throughout Term 3 at O.I.S.

Reminder: Parents are required to report their child's absence before 9am each day. We have had a large number of students arriving late to school each morning. School starts at 8.45am. Please ensure your child arrives to school on time.

Our preferred form of payment is online using our school bank account details below.
