Looking Ahead To Next Year - Classroom Planning

19 Oct 2025

Kia ora koutou, Te Kura o Ōkahau whānau,

I wanted to update everyone now that all of our staffing funding and teaching staff have been confirmed for next year.

Room 3 - NE - Year 2 Whaea Wendy

Room 2 - Year 3 - 4 Whaea Erin

Room 1 - Year 5 - 8 Ms Mackay / Mr Burrow

We have already begun transitions, and will continue to plan for more of these as the term progresses so that the tamariki are feeling comfortable in their classrooms for the beginning of next year.

If you have any questions, etc, please don't hesitate to come and have a chat with a member of the teaching staff or me.

He waka eke noa – We are in this together!
