Attendance
In 2024 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.
The classes with the highest attendance for Week 5 were Room 12 & 8 with 96% attendance and punctuality.
Well done, to these classes.
To advise student absences, please phone 389 8112 or TEXT ONLY to 027 758 1467 BEFORE 9AM PLEASE. If leaving a message, please advise name and reason for absence.
