Updates in care arrangements

Day-to-day care arrangements for children can be agreed informally, recorded in a formal agreement, or determined by a parenting order from the Family Court. Somerfield Te Kura Wairepo requires that parents and guardians provide the school with a copy of any agreement or court order related to the care of their child as soon as possible. Parents and guardians are also responsible for informing the school if there are any changes to the day-to-day care arrangements for a child. This makes it easier for the school to support the family in following such agreements/orders. It is also very important that family contact details are kept up to date.
