Communicating With Whānau
We have updated reporting processes with Seesaw, an online platform which allows for up to the minute sharing of student work. We want our school to give the best opportunities whether academic, sporting, cultural or environmental.
We encourage our students to be active outside of school hours. Home learning should involve reading for pleasure, listening and talking about school experiences and reflecting on goals.
