Marriene Langton Principal/Tumuaki
Welcome back to a new year in our lovely kura. Our goal is to be a locally based school that partners with and is supported by our local community. Everyone who knows us and the last 2 decades of the school's history remarks on the exceptional local community who are a central point for our development and growth. The community is changing in terms of housing and we are now part of the intensive housing projects that have developed across Christchurch City since 2011. We thrive on our close relationships with whanau and local organisations who want to be a part of our journey as a school. Generosity is the key word that we see in action every day to make life better for our tamariki. We do have high expectations for learning and behaviour. Our achievement data over the past few years has been amazing and this is a direct reflection on the relentless work of our kaiako to deliver great teaching programmes every day. Our teachers work closely together and they cross check planning and data. That's why we made it to the Gazette in 2024. We are child development/attachment based and our staff is well trained in how children's brains develop and how we can build amazing relationships with the children in our care. There's a lot of laughter and fun in the classrooms (and in our office with The Fab Five) every day . Please make a point of stopping for great coffee on Friday mornings and take the time to connect with other parents. Haere mai. Welcome to our little corner of paradise

School Disco

Yup it's that time again. Thanks to all of the staff and parent volunteers, under the watchful eye of the PTA who gave up their Friday and Friday night to make it a special night for the children.
I do appreciate the respect that was paid to our school as parents did not bring pre-schoolers and ex pupils to the disco. This is one event that we keep just for our current students.
Maata and I looked like the "two Aunties" as we counted money all night. Someone suggested it was our bingo money. How rude.
The children had a great time. Thank you everyone.
Jared and Angie have offered to be the DJ's next time as we now have a first class surround sound school sound system. I look forward to the beats and sounds. Wicka wicka.
