As part of the school redevelopment we will be constructing a new playground (see the display in Room 17/18). You may want to make a donation towards this project. Donations of $100 or more will be acknowledged with a ceramic tile which our tamariki will decorate in your honour, to be displayed at school.

Donations can be made by eftpos at the office, cash or directly into our account – Redwood Primary School 12 3149 0297862 00. Please put the reference ‘Playground Donation’ and your surname.

Thank you as you consider contributing towards our new playground – here for the generations to come.
