Thanks to those who have indicated they could help with our working bee tomorrow. 
We have been delayed in getting clearance from Powerco and will postpone until they have cleared us removing trees under the powerlines. 

Postponed until further notice.

Kia ora All,

Over recent weeks we have been aware of families having Covid re-emerging.  We know the rules have changed and as long as any household contacts (students) are testing negative they can continue to come to school. We would  like to remind all whānau to be vigilant for symptoms and test if necessary.  With many trips and camps continuing your ongoing support with maintaining the health of our community as we finish the term is greatly appreciated.  

Kia Ora Parents/Caregivers,

We have sent an email this morning to all parents and caregivers advising of your child’s class placement for 2023.

If you have not received an email with this information, please contact the school office.

The class placements are based on student age.   All classes have a range of abilities and teachers will cater for their learning in groups and as individuals.

For many years South Makirikiri School community spends the summer months picking up conventional hay bales. All the money raised goes back to providing opportunities for the students to experience a range of activities. In recent years the turf was developed as part of the money raised and the last two years money has contributed to EOTC (Camp experiences)

For 2023 we need someone to pick up being the key contact for contractors to touch base with where there are jobs to do. This person does not need to be at every hay pick up but more the key contact and then distribute the messages to the community. It is then the school community gets along to help out.   

If this is something you feel you could help take on please give Rob Simpson a call on 0273267626 to discuss what is involved.
