Wiki Rima Kā Korero - Week 5 Information
17 May 2026

 

Kia ora koutou, Te Kura o Ōkahau whānau,

Here are the things that you need to know for the week ahead.

 

Senior Room Moana Pool Swimming Lessons -  (Year 5-7) -   Monday 18th - Friday 22nd May

Please ensure that your child/children have their swimming gear (togs, towel, and swimming goggles) every day this week. If you could also pack some extra snacks /kai for after swimming, I'm sure the tamariki would really appreciate it! 

We will be travelling in a minivan and a car each day. Unfortunately, the car transport part of the equation has just fallen through. We are fine tomorrow, but now we need a car to transport 3 tamariki to Moana Pool from Tuesday through to Friday.

Our departure and return times from and back to school are as follows:

Tuesday:         11.50 am - 1.45 pm

Wednesday:    11.40 am - 1.45 pm

Thursday:        9.40 am - 11.45 am

Friday:            10.40 am - 12.45 pm

If you can help out for one/or all of these days, please contact Lana in the office.

 

Blueskin Library Book Car - Wednesday 20th May

The book car will be visiting us on Wednesday morning for the tamariki to return their library books and get some new ones issued.

 

Explorers Club  (4 Year Old Club) - Friday 22nd May

We have our next instalment of our Explorers Club this Friday morning, from 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. For more information, please contact the school office.
