Our School

Henderson North School opened in February 1957. Our school is built on the land that was held by Te Kawerau a Maki. A small Māori tribe who recently settled their treaty claims. It was once a kauri forest. The trees were chopped down by John Henderson and the kauri logs taken away down the Whau River and across to Auckland and then across the world, but we still have remnants in our school including kauri stumps under our field and buildings, and occasionally kauri gum is found. The school logo is a kauri sapling, so we keep the memory alive.

BAKE SALE

10 Aug 2026

🧁 CAMP FUNDRAISER – BAKE SALE! 🍪

Kia ora whānau,

Just a reminder that our Camp Fundraiser Bake Sale is happening this Wednesday!

Children will be able to buy some yummy treats at morning tea, and hopefully at lunchtime too – if there are any left! 😋

Treats will range in price from 50c, $1.00, $1.50 to $2.00, so children are welcome to bring along some money if they would like to purchase something.

We would also really appreciate donations of baking to help make our fundraiser a success. Donuts, muffins, cupcakes, brownies, cookies, slices – anything yummy would be gratefully received!

If you are able to contribute some baking, could you please let us know what you are planning to bring? This will be extremely helpful so we have an idea of what we can expect on the day.

Thank you so much for supporting our School Camp. 🏕️💙
