Policies & Procedures
Why Choose Us?Catering for Special Needs Children with special needs are assisted in a variety of ways. The part-time teachers and teacher aides play a prominent role in helping class teachers best meet each student’s needs. We provide support programmes in maths, reading and writing and a Perceptual Motor Programme for students needing assistance in developing greater co-ordination. Our school works closely with specialist agencies to ensure that best advice and support is accessed. An Individual Education Plan (IEP) is written for children who gain support via the Ministry’s ORRS (Ongoing Reviewable Resourcing Scheme).
ESOL – English for Speakers of Other Languages For newer arrivals to New Zealand with no English, or limited English, some additional help is provided with discretionary funding made available by the Ministry of Education. Specialist teachers provide small group tuition in English. Music Extension Opportunities exist for students to be involved in a number of musical activities that are additional to classroom programmes. Our senior choir participates in Music Festivals and, along with the Junior Choir, perform at assemblies and local venues. Lunchtime recorder and instrumental groups offer free music tuition for children from Year 3 onwards. Junior, Middle and Senior school musicals are produced biennially. |
StationeryAll students stationery can be purchased from the school office.
Classroom activity fees, $10.00 per term or $30 for the year need to be paid at the office before the end of term 3. It's also a great time to meet the office staff and update any of your contact details that may have changed. Uniform
