We have a drill to ensure everyone knows what to do if there is an emergency. The drill allows us to check our instructions are correct and to make students feel safe in case of emergency.

• In readiness for a drill, kaiako go over the procedure that will be followed, answering questions and making sure that the children feel comfortable about the drill. 

• Following the drill, teachers take a “Mindfulness Session,” to relax and refocus the tamariki. There may be a follow-up discussion about how the class performed the drill. 

• Knowing that a drill is coming up, this may give your whānau an opportunity to discuss emergency plans and prepare tamariki for the practice.

School will be closed on this day. Kids Inc will be open, please contact them to book your child in.

Gold coin donation.
All proceeds to go to Starship Hospital.

Each year we celebrate Pink Shirt Day, raising awareness about standing up to bullying. The tamariki will be doing their part to eliminate bullying by celebrating diversity and promoting kindness and inclusion. The tamariki are encouraged to wear something pink.

No donation is needed, its more an awareness campaign that bullying is not okay!
