Kia ora e te whānau,

What's coming up at Rāroa . . .

We need donations for our Craft Beer & Quiz Night Auction

All Rāroa staff have recently completed first aid refresher courses - quite a logistical feat to organise during these COVID times.

Kia ora e te whānau. Thank you for contacting the school when your child is away for COVID related reasons.

Many of you may be aware of last week’s release of ‘Now I don’t know my ABC’, a report on the state of literacy in our country, published by the ‘Education Hub’ think tank.

I wanted to write a quick note to thank Rāroa, our awesome community, our kaimahi (staff) and of course the fabulous tamariki from over the years I have been here.

We are providing an alternative set of exams for our students instead of ICAS this year.

The Rāroa School Board met online on Monday 21 March.

We love it that so many children are travelling to and from school on wheels. Please support our efforts to keep them safe.

During the Easter long weekend, KiwiRail and its contractor John Holland will be working to complete the renewal of the overhead traction line equipment on the Johnsonville Line.
