Attendance

In 2025, the Ministry of Education has a special project in the Tāmai Kahui Ako of schools to have all of our students to school each day and on time for class. We want to make a difference in our students' learning and we need all of our students here each and every day at school to make this happen.

Please help us be successful by ensuring your children are at school every day and before 9.00am.
