This week we are celebrating a combined Book Week and Chinese Language Week with lots of exciting activities and events planned at school for our last week of Term 3.

The Toki Bring & Buy Camp fundraiser on Wednesday last week was a roaring success with $3400 raised for our 2023 camp.

Thursday 20th October 4pm - 7:30pm

The year 1 tamariki took part in an exciting day's worth of activities to celebrate Te Ao Maori Language Week.

Our School Dispositions in Action!

Term 4 is always a busy one but it is even more so this year with the rearranged camp and EOTC days for our senior students. Below are some the key dates for next term.

A massive thank you to those families who completed the survey two weeks ago. Sport New Zealand are still keen to collect parent voice to help shape learning at Three Kings. Read on for more information and to see how you can have your say.

Join us to celebrate Three Kings' talent.

Entries are now officially open for the Scarecrow Competition

Can you donate goods or services for the Scarecrow Picnic?

We are super grateful those parents who have volunteered to support road patrol even on days when their children are not involved. We are still desperately seeking adults who can help on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings and every afternoon. If you are able to support us with this please contact John Waller via email for more information (john.waller@threekings.school.nz).

Māori Language Week 12 - 19 September

The sun came out at Three Kings on Friday night

We appreciate the continued pressure that the construction work is putting on parking around the school. We know that this is frustrating but ask that you are please considerate of our lovely neighbours. Please don't park over their driveways, even just for a few minutes, they are also dealing with the added inconvenience of the continued disruptions. Thank you!

Every year the year 6 students run the school's road patrols. School patrols help to keep students safe on the road by controlling the flow of vehicles and pedestrians at school crossing points. A patrol is made up of two students (three at our Mt Eden Road Crossing) and a supervising adult. We are desperately seeking adults to supervise our crossings for term 4. If you are able to support us with this please contact John Waller via email for more information (john.waller@threekings.school.nz).

It is that time of year again! The fabulous Toki team ‘Bring and Buy’.

As part of our Book Week celebrations in Week 10, we will be having a school-wide book swap on Friday 30 September in the hall at lunchtime.
