Ngā mihi o te tau hou pakeha.

We only have two weeks of the term left!  I can’t believe how quickly this term has gone. 

Swimming

We have had 3 days of swimming this week and we have another three days next week.  This is an important part of our curriculum and the tamariki are really enjoying their lessons.  If your child is not going to swim they need to have a note from home stating why please.

Waitaki Ara Kāhui Ako Kaiako only day

This week our team joined staff from Fenwick School, Oamaru Intermediate, Waitaki Boys High School and Waitaki Girls High School to learn together.  We had a fabulous speaker talking about trauma and emotional needs of tamariki, there were workshops on Math teaching, Reading teaching, the new curriculum and social and emotional regulation programmes.  The day was fabulous and it was great to see professionals from all schools working together.  This collaboration and learning can only benefit our tamariki and our community.

School Website

Our school website has a wealth of information.  It holds our school policies and procedures, a school calendar and updates on learning around the school.  It also has our newsletters.  Remember to visit www.tepakihiomaru.school.nz or use the QR code in this newsletter to visit our website.
